Los Angeles to require Home Depot to build shelters for day laborers

The new ordinance will require home improvement stores like Home Depot to provide day-labor centers with shelter, drinking water, bathrooms and trash cans.

And I don't mean just one or two people. In the morning, it's common to see dozens of men standing on the sidewalk, waiting for work.

It's certainly an interesting law, I can't imagine it's very popular with any large group of voters. Link to article.
