25% of registered Va voters have struggled to pay their rent or mortgage in the last 2 years! The #HousingCrisis is complex and urgent. Ask the candidates running in your district if they have a plan to address it.

Sacrifices like spending time with children, caring for loved ones, leisure activities to enrich ones life, tending to ones health and mental well-being, learning new skills, volunteering in the community, resting and recharging etc. etc. This affects society in awful ways.

When housing is unaffordable for Virginians, they must sacrifice in other areas of life. The majority of poll respondents who experienced difficulty paying their mortgage or rent in the last two years took on additional work. Report link: bit.ly/3LE1oEU @VaHsgAlliance

Congress must include rental assistance, public housing, &the Housing Trust Fund, if they're serious about Building Back Better. W/o affordable housing, other investments in health, infrastructure, &climate won't be effective. #HousingIsInfrastructure nlihc.org/sites/default/file…

Millions of households are one financial shock away from eviction & homelessness. Everyone deserves a housing safety net; $90B for rental assistance for people with the lowest incomes is a big step toward providing it! #Housing4UsAll. bit.ly/3gfNA5U
