    RTFA. The bill requires municipalities to provide encampments.

    You know, so they can concentrate people somewhere. In a centralized camp.

      I can already imagine razor wire fencing and a watchtower or two around these public “encampments” soon, you know, for their “safety”.

          “My grandpa died in one of those camps. He fell from the guard tower.”

      And provides funding for the municipalities to create said encampments, right? Surely it doesn’t require those blue Demonrat controlled cities municipalities to fund such encampments on their own, right?
