Good afternoon Housing Not Handcuffs supporters,
June 28th marks one year since the Supreme Court made it easier for cities to arrest and ticket people for experiencing homelessness, even when they have nowhere else to go. Over the past year, 225+ homeless and anti-survival bills have been introduced across the country. These bills, like the massive budget cuts proposed by the White House and Congress, will make homelessness worse.
We need proven solutions like housing and healthcare, not handouts to billionaires and handcuffs for the poor.
We have a ton going on over the next few weeks to mark this important anniversary and fight for housing, not handcuffs. Below are two ways you can get plugged in.
1. Join us on June 17th at 8 PM EST for a national webinar
We are co-hosting a webinar with our friends at People’s Action and VOCAL-US. Join this webinar to hear from people who have been impacted by the counterproductive and costly bills that make it easier to arrest, ticket, or otherwise criminalize homelessness across the country. We will also be joined by Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal, who has been a fierce ally in the fight for housing justice.
