minus-squareCatoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 days agoYou seem to be overlooking that SCOTUS specifically ruled that it is constitutional to charge homeless people $300 for falling asleep outside with a blanket, which is what the thread was about.
minus-squarejordanlund@lemmy.worldMlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·4 days agoI get it, what I’m saying is Oregon passed HB 3115 in response to policies like those in Grants Pass. So even though the Supreme Court is allowing it, State Law supercedes it.
minus-squareCatoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 days agoThat doesn’t really do much for the other 49 states + DC or say anything meaningful about the decision itself.
minus-squarejordanlund@lemmy.worldMlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·4 days agoThis is true, but because Grants Pass is subject to Oregon law, it’s a little different for them. What will be interesting to see is how big cities deal with the ruling. San Francisco, LA, Seattle, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia… Badically any city big enough where you don’t have to mention the state. :)
