About this Petition Petition Letter
Why This Is Important

Right now in California, it is illegal to sleep in your car, since there are so many that are losing their homes, it would be natural for them to choose an alternative lifestyle as a means to survive. They are not criminals, nor are they looking for trouble, a lot of them are tax paying citizens who deserve the right to sleep out of the cold. Please join me in signing this petition so that every Californian-home or no home-can get a good night's rest.

Ambitiously yours,
