"The ACLU particularly was opposed to the bills prohibiting sitting and lying on public sidewalks and urinating or defecating on public streets, sidewalks or locations owned or maintained by a government agency."

Anyone care to defend this?

Specifically, we strongly oppose both the sit/lie ban and the proposal regarding bathroom use, said Gluck. These measures criminalize the status of being homeless that is, these measures make it a crime to be poor violating both the Hawaii Constitution and the United States Constitution.

Mauis homeless shelters are consistently full and the county does not provide sufficient restrooms for families and individuals who are homeless, Gluck added.
