Congress can act to decrease homelessness RIGHT NOW by passing the $3.5T infrastructure & economic recovery package w/$37B for National Housing Trust Fund + $90B for Rental Assistance. Don't pass up this once-in-a-lifetime chance! #HoUSed @theNetworkNY @SenSchumer @SpeakerPelosi

Thank you @SenSchumer @SenGillibrand for allocating $332B for housing and transportation in the budget reconciliation. Please include $45B for the National Housing Trust Fund and robust funding for rental assistance in any budget negotiation! #HoUSed #Housing4UsAll @theNetworkNY

New York has housing and homelessness crises across the State. Congress can provide real solutions by investing in #HoUSed campaign priorities, including at least $45B for the National Housing Trust Fund and robust rental assistance. #HoUSed #Housing4UsAll @RepLeeZeldin

Despite the urgent need, only 1/4 households who qualify for rental assistance receives it due to decades of chronic underfunding by Congress. @RitchieTorres @NydiaVelazquez please allocate robust funding for rental assistance in budget negotiations! #HoUSed @theNetworkNY
