Join today’s (April 25) national HoUSed campaign call from 2:30 to 4:00 pm ET. We will give updates from Capitol Hill on the federal budget, reconciliation, and the “Eviction Crisis Act,” which would create a permanent ERA program and provide other new tools to help keep renters stably housed during an unexpected economic crisis. NLIHC’s Dan Emmanuel will share findings from NLIHC’s recently released annual report The Gap, which found a national shortage of 7 million affordable and available rental homes for households paid the lowest wages. The report also identifies systemic racial disparities in housing and calls for significant federal investments in proven solutions to housing poverty. In addition, we will hear the latest on NLIHC’s End Rental Arrears to Stop Evictions (ERASE) project, receive updates from the field, and more.
