California leaders are reacting to the Supreme Court's decision to allow cities to enforce bans on unhoused people sleeping outdoors.The Supreme Court is clearing the way for cities to enforce bans on unhoused people sleeping outdoors, even in the Bay Area where shelter space is limited.Those who violate the ban will face fines and possibly jail time.
This ruling comes as San Francisco is fighting an injunction that blocks the city from removing homeless encampments from streets if there is no shelter available. So this ruling is seen as a win for the city.San Francisco Mayor London Breed: "San Francisco has made significant investments in shelter and housing, and we will continue to lead with offers of services from our hard-working City employees. But too often these offers are rejected, and we need to be able to enforce our laws, especially to prevent long-term encampments. This decision recognizes that cities must have more flexibility to address challenges on our streets.
