John,

A pandemic is bad enough, but now it’s put many Americans out of work—and rent is due.

 

Fortunately, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D—MN) has proposed an elegant solution. Her bill, H.R. 6515, is titled the Rent and Mortgage Cancellation Act. 

 

Introduced in April and cosponsored by the rest of the Squad as well as many renters’ organizations, H.R. 6515 would establish a national relief fund to pay landlords their rent, and mortgage banks their home payments. No one would have to return to work when it’s dangerous, or risk eviction. 

 

Can you chip in today and help us win so renters can get a fair shake from Congress during tough and unpredictable times?

So what happened to it? The bill is being stonewalled by corporate Democrats in the House, led by House Speaker—and wealthy landlord—Nancy Pelosi. 

 

Her priorities are ridiculous, as well as offensive. Congress has found money for Trump’s surveillance, for militarized DHS thugs, for a bloated & fraudulent war budget, and for endless corporate bailouts—but not for renters during a pandemic and recession. 

 

Once I’m in Congress, we’ll join this bill as a cosponsor and make San Francisco’s voice on it a loud and clear “yes.” 

 

New voices are needed in Congress that represent working people, instead of corporations & banks. Can you make a donation today so we can turn the “Squad” into a Platoon?

Ensuring that voters don’t go homeless during a catastrophe shouldn’t be a partisan or ideological issue. Like funding firefighters, it’s simple common sense.

 

Thanks for standing with us on the right side of history. We’re proud to stand with you.
