State and local policymakers can take action to mitigate the impact of these harmful federal policies and make investments in the housing and supportive services that work for people in their communities. For starters, they can:

My new paper details how the Trump Admin is pushing policies that 1) take assistance away while making housing *less*affordable and 2) punish people who become homeless because they can’t afford rent. cbpp.org/research/housi…

Policymakers should reject the Admin’s approach, which echoes dark chapters of history, & focus resources on what we know works: low-barrier affordable housing & customized, community-based services. These are proven to help a wide range of people access safe, stable homes.

If left unchecked, the Admin’s homelessness policies could pave the way for massive government-run detention camps that would deprive large numbers of people of basic freedom

Research shows rental assistace is highly effective and solving and preventing #homelessness. But, if finalized, this rule would make it harder for unhoused people to use rental assistance. People who would lose assistance will be at risk of #eviction and homelessness.

The Trump Administration took another step today that will make it harder for people to afford housing: HUD proposed a rule allowing housing agencies & owners to take rental assistance away from families who reach arbitrary time limits or can’t meet rigid work requirements.

The 60-day comment period for this harmful proposed rule starts today. If finalized, it will split families apart and take housing assistance away from eligible people at a time when millions are struggling to make ends meet. Learn more here: keep-families-together.org

As people across the country struggle to afford housing, HUD proposed a rule today that would force 20,000 families with mixed immigration statuses to choose between losing the assistance that helps them pay rent every month or separating their family.

The SNAP cuts will also make it harder for ppl to afford rent. They put ppl at risk of #eviction, having to move into substandard or crowded housing, or ending up on the streets or in shelters. Trump Admin housing policies are also making things worse: x.com/AnnaKBailey/st…

Many of the Trump Administration’s policies are making it harder for low-income families to afford basic needs. As more people lose SNAP in the coming months due to the megabill's deep cuts, these affordability challenges will only get worse. cbpp.org/research/pover…

Policymakers should reject the Admin’s efforts to advance these backwards approaches and instead fully fund proven solutions, like those that helped cut veteran #homelessness in half. Otherwise, we can expect homelessness to remain high. cbpp.org/media/homeless…

The Admin is also pushing policies that punish people for not being able to afford a home, like fining, arresting, and jailing unhoused people with nowhere else to go. Punishment makes it harder for people to get services that help them access housing and health care.

Senators have the responsibility to uphold and defend the Constitution. Using the annual budget process when necessary to protect the constitutional rights and safety of all people and communities should be a requirement of the job.
Sharon Parrott@ParrottCBPP

In the wake of another horrific shooting death in MN by federal immigration officers -on top of wrongful detentions, violence, & fear there & across the country- it is appropriate for the Senate to use the budget process to push for critical protections for people & communities.
