“Cities like New York City, Philadelphia, and Houston have banned residents from sharing food with the homeless and less fortunate. In Chicago, for example, at least one politician, Ald. James Cappleman, recently tried to banish a Salvation Army food truck from feeding the homeless in his neighborhood.  I called such laws ‘unconstitutional, discriminatory, and wrongheaded’ in a column I wrote over the summer. They remain so.  But since I wrote that widely read column in June, I’ve noticed a welcome pattern emerging. These unjust laws are under attack.”
