Here’s our initial take on what Mayor Bowser’s proposed budget does for affordable housing.
We Must Be Sticks in a Bundle
Add your voice to those calling for a racially and economically just DC budget this year, and follow #PutPeopleFirst on Twitter for updates as this important work moves forward!
We Need Fair Budget Coalition’s Work Now More Than Ever
If you believe, like we do, in the power of people’s stories and the importance of their voice, we hope you will consider responding to Fair Budget’s campaign to ensure that this community engagement work will continue.
Mayor Bowser Has a Critical Campaign Promise Left to Keep
We reflect on the fact that closing DC General was never the only, or even the most important, promise Mayor Bowser made to families experiencing homelessness. Only when all DC families have safe and secure housing will DC have ended family homelessness.
DC Council Must Do Better on Affordable Housing by Second Budget Vote
Just like the budget you might make for your family, our elected leaders are responsible for making choices that ensure that everyone in the DC family can meet their basic needs, including having safe housing.
Do Your Elected Leaders Value Affordable Housing Enough to Fund It?
Contact your Council member and tell them this gap between rhetoric and reality is unacceptable—that they must do better by DC residents struggling with homelessness!
