As we heard yesterday, House Dems introduced the HEROES Act, which includes $175 billion for housing assistance and a national moratorium on evictions and foreclosure! We need to keep up the pressure, and we need to thank our Representatives who have signed on as sponsors. 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;
  
• A requirement that local communities follow guidance by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention and institute a moratorium on homeless encampment sweeps.
  
• AND MORE! See everything that's included in the HEROES Act here.
