• August Advocacy Week 1: Tell Washington Daily to Pass Additional COVID-19 Relief
• August Advocacy Week 2: Rental Assistance and Universal Voucher Access
  • Housing affordability is emerging as a major factor In the COVID-19 economic crisis, however, the problem existed long before the pandemic. Nationwide, only 1 in 5 eligible households receive housing assistance. Tell Congress to provide immediate relief to renters who need assistance to avoid eviction and to provide vouchers to all eligible households to ensure a more equitable economic recovery.
• August Advocacy Week 3: Rental Assistance and Increase Housing Supply
  • The Senate officially departed Washington last week, joining the House on its August recess. Meanwhile, 30 million - 40 million renters face possible eviction. Tell Congress and White House to approve rental assistance today and urge them to increase the affordable housing supply for the future.
  • The persistent shortfall in new housing supply is compounding housing affordability pressure across the country. The Urban Land Institute estimates the current production of new affordable multi-family units, 100,000 annually, ls not enough to meet existing needs. Since 1999, almost 300,000 permanently affordable units removed from the inventory of public housing units.
  • At the core of recovery from the pandemic and the economic fallout should be a commitment to dramatically scale up production of affordable housing, creating quality jobs while giving Americans housing options.
