The Right to Rest Act, SB608, was heard in California Senate’s Transportation and Housing Committee on April 7. The vote was postponed. Before the vote comes up again next session we have a lot to do, such as growing our coalition, growing the number of supporters, and educating legislators and opposition how and why this bill is so important to homeless people and people of good conscience.

April 7 brought coalition members and supporters from Los Angeles, the Bay Area, Merced, Sacramento and others to rally together and testify at the hearing (a line going out the door).
