Episode description

The debate over whether cities and states have the right to criminally punish people experiencing homelessness for sleeping in public. With a decision from the Supreme Court looming on whether cities and states will have the right to criminally punish people experiencing homelessness for sleeping in public, many are divided on what that decision should be.

Tonight, Dr. Phil will hear from people experiencing homelessness themselves, and learn why they are strongly against being criminalized. Plus, the debate continues as Donald Whitehead (Executive Director of the National Coalition for the Homeless), Matt Mackowiak (Co-founder of Save Austin Now), Michele Steeb (Senior Fellow with the Texas Public Policy) and residents of Grants Pass, (a town that has gained national attention because of a court case between local homeless individuals and the city), debate the solutions to the homelessness epidemic.
