NC Homeless Union: Proposed “unauthorized camping” ban cruel, dangerous
The North Carolina chapter of the National Union of the Homeless condemns a proposed state bill banning unauthorized camping, calling it dangerous and a violation of human rights. They argue the bill criminalizes homelessness instead of addressing housing shortages and corporate real estate vacancies, and warn it will endanger vulnerable groups including veterans and domestic abuse survivors.
