More families are struggling to make ends meet, rents are high, eviction filings are up, and homelessness is increasing in many communities. We need robust federal investments in affordable housing more than ever. Take action today: nlihc.org/take-action @NLIHC
Criminalization is not a solution to homelessness. We can’t lose sight of what ends homelessness: affordable homes! Congress must pass long-term solutions to ensure that people with the lowest incomes have a stable, affordable home. Learn more: nlihc.org/housed @NLIHC
We know how to end homelessness. The clearest example is veteran homelessness, which has been cut in half in recent years. Let’s build on lessons learned to end homelessness for others in need. nlihc.org/take-action @NLIHC

Criminalization makes it harder for people to exit homelessness. Instead, we need to invest in proven and humane solutions. Learn about best practices in responding to unsheltered homelessness: tinyurl.com/46s7t4fb @NLIHC
Providing access to affordable homes & voluntary services is more effective at ending homelessness than outdated & dehumanizing strategies like criminalization. Learn how criminalization exacerbates homelessness & what communities can do instead: tinyurl.com/mr3b7p4t @NLIHC
The research is irrefutable: access to affordable, stable housing and supportive services is the most effective approach to ending homelessness. It is a bipartisan, evidence-based practice backed by multiple, national studies: tinyurl.com/2p8p5dbr @NLIHC
Criminalization is not a solution to homelessness. Imposing fines and jail time is counterproductive, expensive, and dehumanizing. States & leaders should follow the evidence on what works. Learn more: tinyurl.com/46s7t4fb @NLIHC
At its core, the Grants Pass v. Johnson Supreme Court case asks whether ticketing & arresting unhoused people for trying to survive when there are no other options is cruel and unusual punishment. It is. Learn more about the case & how to get involved: johnsonvgrantspass.com
On Fair Housing Month, I find it despicable that our country's Supreme Court is considering whether cities can criminalize our unhoused neighbors just for existing. We know that's not right! So, I joined my good friend @RepCori in front of SCOTUS to say what we know to be true:…
#OTD in 1968, the landmark Fair Housing Act was signed into law by President Lyndon Johnson, who proclaimed “…fair housing for all — all human beings who live in this country — is now a part of the American way of life.” #FairHousingMonth bit.ly/3U0Lev6

We know corporate real estate interests should pay their fair share to fund housing and address homelessness in our city. YES at the end of your ballot to #BringChicagoHome
A proposed ballot amendment in Chicago would tax real estate moguls to combat homelessness, amid concerns that allowing real estate interests to influence public policy will not empower the people of Chicago in housing matters. truthout.org/articles/chica…
We will not be intimidated by voter suppression from the real estate industry. Today real estate groups took the Board of Elections to court to try stop Chicago voters from being able to vote on our question.
I wonder what the community response would be if shelters for the traditional homeless population were proposed in their neighborhoods. chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/202…

(HB 5314 | SB 3680), which addresses the alarming trend of so-called “crime-free housing and nuisance property” ordinances (CFNOs). These local laws penalize renters and housing providers for contact with law enforcement and often violate fair housing and other civil rights laws.
