Our letter to the President

Dear President Obama,

Please take action to end America’s affordable housing and homelessness crisis. We need:
  • More section 8 vouchers immediately
  • Build public housing to meet the need
  • Full funding of the National Housing Trust Fund
  • Stop foreclosures

More section 8 vouchers immediately.

I know women who have been waiting months for vouchers. One just received hers. She now has hope.

Build public housing to meet the need.

To meet the need, we must have a complete inventory of spaces in our community that are available but are currently not being used. That will let us know how many units need to be built and where.

Full funding of the National Housing Trust Fund.

Stop foreclosures.

Re-regulating financial institutions will be a first step in helping people stay in their homes.
