The US Supreme Court is reviewing the constitutionality of ticketing homeless people for camping on public property, which could have significant implications for cities grappling with homelessness. The case originated in Grants Pass, Oregon, where the city argues its anti-camping ordinance is a solution to the crisis. The court will decide if these rules violate the Eighth Amendment's prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment. The outcome will guide cities in addressing homelessness while respecting constitutional rights. Meanwhile, the city of Anoka, Minnesota, has agreed to rewrite its anti-crime law to protect mentally ill residents and pay $175,000 to resolve allegations of discrimination. #Homelessness #SupremeCourt #Constitutionality #MentalHealth...
