Please follow the
above link to contact your members of Congress today and ask them to ensure that the next stimulus package includes:
- $11.5 billion in Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funding. This combined with the $4 billion previously provided in the CARES
Act will reach the funding level needed to expand access to emergency shelter, short-term rental assistance, and housing stabilization
services;
- $100 billion in rental assistance to keep people housed and ensure landlords, including low-income housing providers,
have the income they need to continue to operate;
- $8.5 billion to ensure that public housing authorities
can continue to operate at full capacity;
- A uniform, national
moratorium on evictions and foreclosures;
- Resources for housing counselors
and legal services to help renters and homeowners stay housed; and
- A requirement that local communities follow guidance by
the Center for Disease Control and Prevention and institute a moratorium on homeless encampment sweeps.
