Washington, DC right now. This is fascism. Eviction of 62 homeless encampments start tonight. If you don’t live in DC I need you to call your congresspeople and tell them to stop this racist, authotarian power grab.

❗️The Supreme Court just ruled to make it easier to jail or fine unhoused people for sleeping outside, even when adequate shelter or housing isn’t available. This will only make homelessness worse. Housing - not tickets, jail, or fines - ends homelessness.

Homelessness demands urgent action from all levels of government – federal, state, & local. We know what works to end homelessness: providing individuals with stable, accessible, affordable housing & voluntary supportive services.

Their cruelty will very likely fail to stop the project but *will* succeed in driving up costs and delaying access to housing for people with cancer and kidney failure as winter nears. Utterly shameful.
NEW: D.C.'s planned homeless shelter in the West End is facing another lawsuit. The same group of anonymous neighbors to challenge the project this summer has filed a new case, this time claiming the Aston shelter violates zoning rules: washingtoncitypaper.com/arti…

Absolutely horrifying. Samantha Woll, a synagogue president and Jewish leader in Detroit, was found stabbed multiple times outside her home. My heart breaks for her whole community. Such a tremendous loss. May Samantha’s memory be for a blessing. detroitnews.com/story/news/l…
