Campaign for the Homeless Bill of Rights

The Peace and Freedom Party of California has sponsored the campaign for a (very minimal) Homeless Bill of Rights. Here is a link to information on Homeless Bill of Rights. [http://wraphome.org/work/civil-rights-campaign].    
"Our organization supports a Homeless Bill of Rights Campaign in California & Oregon that will create bills to protect the following rights and prohibit the enforcement of any local laws that violate these rights:  
(1) the Right to move freely, rest, sleep, and pray in public spaces;  
(2) the Right to occupy a vehicle;  
(3) the Right to share and eat food in public;  
(4) the Right to legal counsel for infractions; and  
(5) the Right to 24-hour access to existing hygiene facilities."
