Please join NLIHC and nearly 200 other organizations in signing onto a letter to Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee Ranking Member Bill Nelson (D-FL), urging him to include provisions for the Disaster Housing Assistance Program (DHAP) in the Senate version of the FAA Reauthorization Act. The recently passed House version of this bill contained several disaster-related provisions but failed to include DHAP – a proven program to provide stable, longer-term housing assistance for hurricane survivors along with wrap-around case management services. Join NLIHC and the Disaster Housing Recovery Coalition (DHRC) in calling for Senator Nelson’s support by signing onto the letter by Tuesday, May 8 at: https://bit.ly/2joDh0G
