John,
In Seattle and cities across the country, people in our communities are living in tents, cars, and crowded shelters. Not because they’ve done anything wrong, but because our country refuses to treat housing as a human right.
That has to change.
That’s why recently, I introduced the Housing is a Human Right Act with Representative Grace Meng and a coalition of progressive lawmakers. This legislation invests more than $300 billion in affordable housing, services, and humane, community-based solutions to end homelessness in America.
Because homelessness isn’t a personal failure. It’s a failure of policy and priorities.
In my home district of Seattle, more than 16,000 people experience homelessness on any given night. Washington state now has the third-highest homeless population in the nation. And yet, Trump and Republicans just pushed through massive tax breaks for billionaires while slashing food assistance and healthcare.
This is what we’re up against, John. We need investments in housing and care, not more punishment and neglect.
We have the solutions. We just need the will to act.
Thank you for standing with me,
Pramila
