In a landmark ruling that will have significant nationwide

ramifications

the U.S. Supreme Court on Friday cleared the way for local

governments to more

aggressively enforce camping bans and punish homeless people

for sleeping outside, even when shelter space is lacking.

The court’s conservative justices in the 6-3 decision sided with

the city of Grants Pass, Oregon, saying that the city’s

enforcement of camping bans on public property did not amount

to “cruel and unusual punishment” and did not violate the Eighth

Amendment.

UC Berkeley experts in social welfare, public health, law and

policy disagree, saying the decision will increase the distress of

homeless people and force them to live in more dangerous places.

While the case most directly involved the policies of a small city

just north of the California-Oregon border, the details have been

closely watched across the country.

Liberal California leaders and conservative Republican lawmakers

alike had argued that existing laws made it difficult for them to

manage homeless encampments and enforce rules for an

increasing number of unhoused people sleeping on the streets.

Friday’s decision is likely to change that in a major way,

“The Court has greenlighted the criminalization of homelessness,

which research shows is counterproductive and inhumane,” said

Jeffrey Selbin, a Berkeley Law professor and faculty director for

the Policy Advocacy Clinic. “As the dissent and even the majority

noted, state and local lawmakers are not required to go down

that path.

This case will be a Rorschach test for elected officials: Will they

redouble their efforts to provide shelter and housing, or fall back

on laws that punish people for being homeless?”
