Virginia 2026 Homeless Encampment Bill — Bill introduced by Virginia Democrats to ban localities from clearing homeless encampments.
Summary
This bill would make it illegal for Virginia cities and counties to fine people for setting up permanent encampments in:

- Underpasses
- Medians
- All other public spaces
Critics describe this as creating "California-style tent cities" across the Commonwealth.
