Las Vegas officials passed a law Wednesday making it illegal for the homeless to sleep on streets when beds are available at established shelters, despite fierce protests labeling the move as a “war on the poor”.




The measure will apply to the city’s downtown urban core, not the tourist-heavy Las Vegas Strip, which is overseen by a different jurisdiction.
Mayor Carolyn Goodman, the sponsor of the measure, called it imperfect but necessary to deal with what officials and downtown business owners characterize as a homeless crisis.


“This is flawed but it is a start,” the mayor said after noting Las Vegas’ economy relies on its image as an attractive international tourist attraction.
“We have been having these conversations for 20 years,” she said, “and we must have results.”


Las Vegas becomes the latest city in the US west – from San Francisco and Seattle to Honolulu and Salt Lake City – to try to deal with complaints about homelessness.


The ninth US circuit court of appeals struck down a similar law from Boise, Idaho, last year, calling it unconstitutional to prosecute people for sleeping in public places when there aren’t enough shelter beds.


The city attorney, Brad Jerbic, said the Las Vegas law was crafted to withstand a similar legal challenge, with its “if beds are available” provision.
Opponents rejected city officials’ assurances that there will be enough shelter space when necessary.


The law provides for warnings by public officers, beginning Sunday, for people found “camping, lodging, sitting, lying down, sleeping and similar activities” in most downtown areas.


Those activities become a misdemeanor beginning 1 January, punishable by up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.


“It’s criminalizing the homeless,” the Rev Leonard Jackson, the associate pastor of First African Methodist Episcopal Church in North Las Vegas and director of the regional Faith Organizing Alliance, said during a morning protest outside City Hall.
