No

PES would likely support the idea that individuals should not have to sleep or encamp on public property if adequate shelter or housing is available, reflecting their broader commitment to ensuring housing for all. They would probably view the refusal of available shelter as a sign that the provided options are not adequate or appropriate, rather than a reason to outright ban sleeping in public spaces.
