Louisiana judge halts homeless camp sweeps in New Orleans before Taylor Swift concerts: New York Post

A Louisiana judge has put a stop to further sweeps of a homeless camp in New Orleans, just days before Taylor Swift is set to perform in the city.

The decision comes after advocates for the homeless filed a lawsuit against the city, arguing that the sweeps were unconstitutional and violated the rights of the homeless individuals living in the camp.

The judge’s ruling is a temporary victory for the homeless community in New Orleans, who have been facing increasing pressure from city officials to vacate the camp ahead of the upcoming Taylor Swift concerts.

The sweeps, which have been happening regularly in recent weeks, have resulted in the displacement of dozens of homeless individuals, many of whom have nowhere else to go.

Advocates for the homeless are hopeful that the judge’s decision will lead to a more permanent solution for those living in the camp, and are calling on the city to provide alternative housing options for those who have been displaced.

As the legal battle continues, all eyes will be on New Orleans as the city prepares to host one of the biggest concerts of the year, with Taylor Swift set to take the stage in just a few days.
