The League of Women Voters of VT, in partnership with Kellogg-Hubbard Library presents the second in its 2024-2025 Lecture Series on Recent Supreme Court Decisions. This season we look at potential impacts of five important decisions issued since 2022.
The second program, Wednesday, December 11, 7:00pm presents Frank Knaack, ED of Housing and Homelessness Alliance of VT (HHAV) and Falco Schilling, Advocacy Director with ACLU VT.
They will discuss the June 2024 Supreme Court decision upholding ordinances in the Oregon city of Grants Pass that prohibit people who are homeless from using blankets, pillows or cardboard boxes for protection from the elements while sleeping within city limits. Justices agreed with the city that ordinances enforcing camping regulations against homeless people do not violate the Constitution's ban on cruel and unusual punishment.
This will be a virtual presentation. You may send questions in advance to league@lwvofvt.org or through Chat during the event.
