The small Central Valley city of Tulare is not necessarily a place that springs to mind when you think of social justice activism. But this sleepy city has been a hotbed of activism for the ACLU recently, especially on policing and homelessness.
When the ACLU of Northern California learned in October of 2006 that the City of Fresno was violating the constitutional rights of its homeless residents by seizing and immediately destroying their possessions, we, along with the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights and the law firm of HellerEhrman LLP, filed a class-action lawsuit in federal district court.
