Sitting is not a crime.
Resting is not a crime.
Sleeping is not a crime.
Camping is not a crime.
Being poor is not a crime.
Needing help is not a crime.
Homelessness is not a crime, it’s a policy failure.

The recent #SCOTUS decision doesn’t force communities to actively engage in criminal punishment of unsheltered people. Instead, it makes it easier for communities to do exactly that if they choose.

"The nation is experiencing a homelessness crisis that predates the pandemic. Between 2019-2020, 30 sates saw a rise in homelessness. In 2020, for the first time since the count began, there were more unsheltered single individuals than sheltered single individuals." -@annymoliva
