The Missouri Supreme Court on Tuesday struck down a law that threatened homeless people with jail time for sleeping on state land.
Judges ruled unanimously to toss the law for violating a section of the Missouri Constitution that prohibits legislation from containing multiple unrelated subjects.
In this case, the sweeping 64-page bill also dealt with city and county governance and banned COVID-19 vaccine requirements for public workers in Missouri.
Judges ruled that the law is “invalid in its entirety,” Judge Paul Wilson wrote in the court’s decision.
Yes, misery indeed.
