John,

Rep. Cori Bush has been unhoused, living in a car with her two children. She doesn’t want anyone else to experience that trauma, stress, stigma, and pain, which is why she’s led on housing justice in Congress.

Two years ago today, Cori led her fellow members of Congress in a 5-day demonstration to extend the federal eviction moratorium as it was set to expire. Sleeping on the steps of the U.S. Capitol, she negotiated with the White House and Congress, and succeeded in delaying evictions -- keeping 11 million people in their homes.

But as Cori has said, we must do more than prevent evictions. We have a housing crisis including skyrocketing rents, and our work won’t be done until we guarantee housing as a human right for every person in the country.

That’s why Cori just reintroduced the Unhoused Bill of Rights, affirming the dignity of unhoused people and laying out how we can end the unhoused crisis by 2027.

Please sign on today to support Cori Bush’s Unhoused Bill of Rights and ensure the government secures housing as a human right.

This is urgent: Rising housing costs continue to rapidly outpace wages, forcing more families to live on the streets. We have the power and the money to guarantee housing as a human right, but we need the will to reorient congressional priorities.

Cori Bush’s just-reintroduced Unhoused Bill of Rights provides a blueprint for the federal government to permanently end the unhoused crisis by 2027 with holistic, health-based, and non-carceral solutions.

The legislation calls on the Department of Health and Human Services to declare the unhoused crisis a public health emergency, and calls for rigorous federal investments into homeless assistance programs, affordable housing initiatives, and wraparound services that keep people permanently housed.

Can you help demonstrate the public support behind Cori Bush’s Unhoused Bill of Rights by signing on as a grassroots co-sponsor today?

Thank you for taking action in support of our unhoused neighbors.

In solidarity,

Team Cori
