House Bill 4919 would create the Bill of Rights for the Homeless Act. This act would provide that homeless individuals must be granted the same rights and privileges as any other citizen in Michigan and would prohibit the denial or abridgment of an individual’s rights, privileges, or access to public services solely because the individual is, or is perceived to be, homeless.
a list of rights would be recognized including: The right to move freely in public spaces in the same manner as any other individual without discrimination based on the individual’s housing status, the right to emergency medical care without discrimination based on the individual’s housing status, and the right to freedom from employment discrimination because the individual lacks a permanent mailing address or has a mailing address that is a shelter or social service provider.
