San Francisco to Intensify Homeless Encampment Sweeps Following July 8 Supreme Court Ruling in Grants Pass Case
Jul 8, 2024, 04:04 PM
San Francisco is set to intensify its efforts to clear homeless encampments following a landmark ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court on July 8. The decision, which overturns a Ninth Circuit ruling, allows cities to enforce stricter homelessness policies. Mayor London Breed emphasized the importance of this ruling in addressing the city's persistent homelessness crisis. The ruling in Grants Pass v. Johnson has been seen as a significant victory for those advocating for stronger actions to clean up communities and provide necessary treatment for the homeless. A federal court has lifted an injunction on San Francisco's ability to conduct encampment sweeps, although officers must still adhere to the 'bag and tag' policy for personal property. This development marks a pivotal shift in local responsibility for managing homelessness.
