'Murica

In July, the city of Sacramento, California, planned to move people from shaded public spaces to Miller Park, a paved lot without any shade. Arguing that this would knowingly endanger their health and lives, the Sacramento Homeless Union filed a legal complaint, much as it did last summer and at the height of the pandemic. The complaint was successful, and U.S. District Judge Troy L. Nunley issued an order on Aug. 3 to halt all encampment sweeps until mid-August.
