City councilmembers voted to authorize an amicus brief supporting the U.S. Supreme Court’s hearing of a case challenging how the city of Grants Pass, Oregon, enforces its ban on homeless encampments.
The homeless crisis in San Diego County is getting worse, according to numbers released last week by the Regional Task Force on Homelessness.
“Cities like ours are working against courts that are often tying our hands when it comes to trying to address the urgent health and safety conditions that we find in our streets because of our collective homelessness crisis," Mayor Todd Gloria said. Mayor Gloria is hoping to tip the scales of justice in the city's favor, as cities like Grants Pass and San Francisco are being sued for how they’re enforcing camping bans.
