STOP THE SLEEPING BAN - Please join the Freedom Sleepers at the 97th Sleep-out at City Hall. We are calling for a change in Santa Cruz City Ordinance 6.36.010 Sleeping Ban. It is time to let people get a good nights sleep. It is illegal to sleep in a vehicle or outside in Santa Cruz from 11 PM to 8:30 AM. The police and rangers often wake people up several times a night ticketing and at times arresting people. This is a violation of their human rights.
Food Not Bombs and India Joze provide free food for everyone.  |

The response of City Manager Martin Bernal to the Survival Sleepers and the May 9th Protest has been to decree a complete ban on any First Amendment activity at City Hall from 6 PM to 7 AM and anti-homeless "regulations" banning folks from sitting down or lying or placing their possessions on the walkways at any time day or night. This without any Public Hearing, Notice, or Debate.
