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

I believe section 8 vouchers should be for everyone, geared for families with kids, but also for people without kids, or the homeless.

Public housing should be based on the total income per family - 30% of income should be for the rent.

There should be full funding of the National Housing Trust Fund to help people that are less fortunate.

They should stop foreclosures. People that do not have jobs due to layoffs should have a chance to pay a lower mortgage. Mortgage companies should work with people.
