The most powerful federal appeals court in the western United States once again refused to let cities and towns force the homeless off of the streets unless communities provide shelter for them.
Cities large and small across the west coast have tried, and failed, to overturn the higher court's ruling for years, the latest of which came from the Oregon city, Grants Pass.
"There's been so much discussion and controversy in the community that we're kind of at a standstill about what to do about it," said Bristol. "Homelessness is presently the defining public health and safety crisis in the western United States," wrote conservative Judge Milan Smith Jr."There are stretches of where one cannot help but think the government has shirked its most basic responsibilities under the social contract: providing public safety and ensuring that public spaces remain open to all."
