Dear Law Center supporters,

 
Today, instead of using their power to help people pay rent, access healthcare, or lower the cost of groceries, the Trump administration doubled down on backwards polices that will make homelessness worse.

These changes will force 170,000 people- mostly seniors and people with disabilities- who are currently stably housed, back into homelessness. Instead of helping people, HUD's ideologically driven funding guidelines leverage nearly $4 billion to play political games that will: 
Restrict funding from cities that refuse to treat homelessness as a crime Impose ideological mandates on states to attack trans people and immigrants Deny funding to jurisdictions that recognize the common sense and data-backed truth that housing and support solve homelessness.

It's long past time for us all to stand together in rejecting the growing attacks on people who sleep outside and to double down on real solutions, such as housing and support. As Trump uses homelessness as justification to take over cities and deploy the military, we demand that Congress pass the Housing Not Handcuffs Act[[link removed]], designed to prohibit federal agencies from arresting, ticketing, or otherwise criminalizing homelessness. 

 
 
Tell Congress: Pass Housing Not Handcuffs![[link removed]]
