Senate OKs bill to create “Homeless Bill of Rights”

STATE HOUSE – May 29, 2012 – (RealEstateRama) — “It is sad that in a nation as rich as ours, there are still so many homeless people,” said Sen. John J. Tassoni Jr. (D-Dist. 22, Smithfield, North Smithfield). “Whether that is a long-term or short-term situation, the homeless have a right to access decent accommodations, to obtain employment and to be treated fairly by law enforcement, regardless of their housing status.”
