It’s staying chilly over the next 10 days. Mutual aid groups need blankets, hand / foot warmers, $$$$ funds to support people who live outside with expensive propane in Seattle. You can also carry these things with you; give out if you see someone living in tent or vehicle. #StopTheSweeps
“David Giffen, the executive director of Coalition for the Homeless, said his organization was “blindsided” by the announcement…he said, the efforts would fray trust between the city’s outreach workers and unsheltered residents” #StopTheSweeps apnews.com/article/zohr...

Stop the sweeps means stop the sweeps. Without housing where are people supposed to go? Sweeping people doesn’t make their lives better and sends the message that some people are trash and others aren’t in our communities. #StopTheSweeps
untreated mental illness, substance use and a thin social safety net that leaves people one paycheck, or one health crisis, away from the streets," this @sfchronicle.com piece names.

This #HumanRightsDay, we're reducing barriers for New Yorkers facing homelessness—instead of increasing barriers with destabilizing sweeps.
As we commend the Mayor-elect's promise to #StopTheSweeps, we leave you with a message from housing justice activist Andrew Chappotin.

This action is being led by unhoused people and people impacted by HIV/AIDS. People are asked to bring gear to the rally and show up in chambers. Bangor no longer allows remote testimony. Emails for city councilors below
Lawrence Police Chief Aguilar, on Lawrence's unhoused community at last night's hearing:
"There is no amount of outreach in the world that can help these people"
... then why are you vying for control over that very outreach for the LPD via your so-called Camping Ban? #Mapoli #StopTheSweeps
2 Lawrence cops are proposing a "camping ban" and there is a public hearing tonight. These bans are a cruel and dehumanizing practice which do nothing to get people housed or keep them safe in any way.
Watch here:

A budget adjustment is not oversight and does nothing to help folks already displaced by these sweeps. Sue him into compliance.
#StopTheSweeps
$4.3m is not enough. Take the Tozer, et al. v. City of Portland sweeps slush fund and make public the city’s records in settling.
#StopTheSweeps
Sweeps make the lives of our unhoused neighbors worse. Funds should go to rental assistance that keeps people housed. Portland must act now, especially as the federal government fails to serve its citizens.
Let's end Mayor Wilson's war on the poor.
#stopthesweeps #waronthepoor #orpol #portland
We must fight back against efforts to dehumanize and disappear our unhoused neighbors. Something you can do is to join a local mutual aid or #StoptheSweeps group, to fight police encampment sweeps and the criminalization of poverty.

hey @mayorkwilson.bsky.social — It looks like maybe your war on the poor/houseless is NOT what voters want right now.
We want bold compassion, not a neoliberal funhouse mirror version of Trump's "send the homeless to work camps" plan.
#StopTheSweeps #ReplaceWilson #WilsonHatesThePoor
The mayor has no authority to ban camping or to enforce a ordinance that council doesn't pass. Though this was passed by the old council this council has the authority to rescind it. 1st step should be to #stopthesweeps
So stop them. #stopthesweeps.
Sweeps kill. #StopTheSweeps #OpSafeWinter
Procedural leverage: The city’s encampment ban cannot be enforced unless shelter space is available. With only 20 beds and no year-round shelter, enforcement remains legally fragile. #stopthesweeps
