Pramila is leading the way on another critical issue: Housing.

She just introduced the Housing is a Human Right Act, transformative
legislation to authorize more than $300 billion for crucial housing
infrastructure while reducing homelessness across America. [ [link removed] ]If you agree

People across America faced a housing crisis long before the pandemic
pushed millions of additional families into poverty. One in four renters
was spending half of their monthly income on rent, and nearly a million
tenants are evicted each year. Homelessness keeps getting worse across the
country. We desperately need the federal government to take bold action.

Supported by key affordable housing groups across America, that’s exactly
what this bill does — takes immediate action to ensure everyone has a
place to call home. Some of the important details include:

* Investing $100 billion in existing, critical housing grant programs
* Creating a new grant program to invest in humane infrastructure;
providing municipalities with $6 billion a year through a flexible
program that will allow them to address their most urgent
infrastructure needs related to housing and homelessness
* Incentivizing local investments in humane, evidence-based models to
support people experiencing homelessness, including alternatives to
criminalization and penalization
* Providing $10 billion for FEMA emergency food and shelter grants

And together, we can pressure Congress to take immediate action. Help us
put that pressure on by adding your name to the Housing is a Human Right
Act today!

We’re proud to say that this bold housing policy is endorsed by dozens of
local, state, and national organizations, and it’s co-sponsored Members of
Congress including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Jamaal Bowman and Barbara
Lee. We hope you’ll join all of these advocates today by signing on as
well.

In solidarity,

Team Jayapal
