#FairHousing means ensuring that everyone, no matter who they are, has access to safe, decent, and affordable housing, so that they can thrive.
Under the leadership of Chairwoman Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA-43), @HouseDemocrats passed historic levels of funding for fair housing in the #BuildBackBetterAct. Without robust fair housing enforcement, our nation's housing stock will never serve everyone adequately.
Only when we achieve the full promise of fair housing will we see economic opportunity in every neighborhood, affordable housing for all, and an end to homelessness in America. #FairHousingMonth
Our homecare workers should no longer be expected to live and survive on starvation wages. We must pass the #BuildBackBetterAct to invest $200 billion in homecare. This is not an expense, but rather an investment in human dignity.
There’s no labor shortage in home care. There’s a wage shortage.
In NYS, home care workers—who earn an average of 22k a year—are expected to survive on starvation wages.
Pass #FairPay4HomeCare in NYS.
Pass #BuildBackBetter in the US Senate.
Proud to stand with @1199SEIU, @CDPAANYS, @cpc_nyc, and @Spirit_SCI in the fight for home care justice.

Let’s pass #BuildBackBetterAct and get back to the positive effects of the #ChildTaxCredit and the Biden agenda for working families.
We must address systemic racism in homeownership access. The #BuildBackBetterAct would invest in making sure all first-generation homeowners have the opportunity to buy a home.

This Valentine’s Day, we have a love note for our country 💞 It’s called the #BuildBackBetterAct which lowers drug prices, childcare costs, provides immigration protections, safe affordable housing, and helps generate green energy to combat the climate crisis and more.
66,000+ Angelenos experience homelessness, per @LAHomeless's most recent pre COIVD-19 count.
I voted for the #BuildBackBetterAct because Congress needs to act NOW.
It’s now up to the Senate to #ShowHousingLove & make the largest investment in housing infrastructure a REALITY!
