Join today’s (May 23) national HoUSed campaign call from 2:30 to 4:00 pm ET. We will be joined by Special Assistant to the President for Housing and Urban Policy Erika Poethig, who will discuss President Biden’s recently announced Housing Supply Action Plan aimed at easing the burden of housing costs. Rasheedah Phillips, director of housing at PolicyLink, will share findings from a new report on how the shortage of affordable homes in major cities is disproportionately impacting Black renters. We will hear from NLIHC’s End Rental Arrears to Stop Evictions (ERASE) project about two new reports – Extending the Reach of Emergency Rental Assistance: Leveraging Federal Resources and Promoting Housing Stability through Just Cause Eviction Legislation. We will also receive the latest updates from Capitol Hill concerning the reconciliation and appropriations bills; hear news from the field; and more.
