I’m happy to report SB 1011 (Jones) died today in committee. SFV Young Democrats voted to oppose this legislation b/c we know that Sec. 41.18 is not working. #NOonSB1011

Unhoused folks are disproportionately Black and Brown. Criminalizing them would move CA backwards on fighting racism Aisha Wahab 愛莎華 Steven Bradford Senator Scott Wiener Nancy Skinner #NOonSB1011
Housing + services = what ends homelessness.
But SB 1011 would push California in the opposite direction, and make homelessness worse.

Pushing unhoused people out of sight doesn’t make homelessness go away. To end homelessness, we need to address the root problem: lack of affordable housing.
Communities are safer and stronger when we ALL have a stable place to live. Aisha Wahab 愛莎華 #NOonSB1011
SB 1011= Harm “When I was ticketed for living outside, it made me feel like I didn’t belong in my own community. It made me feel like a second-class community member who didn’t even have the right to exist.” Aisha Wahab 愛莎華 #NOonSB1011 Nancy Skinner Senator Steven Bradford Senator Scott Wiener

When IDs, paperwork, life-saving meds, and important possessions all get thrown in a garbage truck - how are our unhoused neighbors supposed to get back into housing? Aisha Wahab 愛莎華 Steven Bradford Senator Scott Wiener Nancy Skinner please vote #NOonSB1011
Criminalization makes it harder to get folks back into housing. IDs, paperwork, life-saving meds, and important possessions all get thrown in the garbage truck.

‘We need to do something, and this is a thing’ is the worst kind of policymaking, but that’s basically the thrust of Senator Seyarto’s support of SB 1011. The problem with that thinking? We know what works to end homelessness, and it isn’t this. #NOonSB1011
Thank you Aisha Wahab 愛莎華 for your strong words about how housing affordability and stronger tenant protections are the way out of this crisis, and highlighting that unhoused folks are part of our community too! #NOonSB1011
Housing and services end homelessness.
But SB1011 would push California in the opposite direction, and make homelessness worse.
