Are Bans on Sleeping in Cars Constitutional?

What’s the deal? Colorado has a ban on sleeping in cars in designated spots, like rest stops. A Colorado Court it violates the Constitution to prosecute people for sleeping outdoors when indoor shelter is not available to them. This follows a 2018 federal 9th Circuit opinion.

Why is this important? How cities and states handle homeless population is constantly evolving.

How is this important? Depends how far these court cases go and thus how far constitutional issues intersect with homeless policy.
