🏠💡 What would it look like if housing was a public good rather than a source of profit for landlords? @aforhj gets into the basics of what #SocialHousing can mean for millions of people in the US.
This bill would cut Section 8 housing by 36%. Section 8 helps extremely poor households afford rent, with a special preference for families with kids, for people with disabilities, and for veterans. This would kick 1.3 million households out of their homes.

Justice Sotomayor, dissenting: "Today, the Court, for the first time in its history, grants a business open to the public a constitutional right to refuse to serve members of a protected class." "Our Constitution contains no right to refuse service to a disfavored group."

The National Apartment Association—who the White House highlighted today for their "commitments" to tenant protections—is sending tweets celebrating efforts to stop rent regulations while rents are higher than they've ever been. We're hostages of profiteers.

For too long, corporations have had free rein to raise rents unchecked, price gouging families and raking in record profits. President Biden's announcement today is an important first step to protect tenants and help make rent more affordable for families. washingtonpost.com/business/2023/…
TODAY the White House releases tenant protections policy, following a lengthy process, incl. engagement with #HomesGuarantee tenant leaders. While providing some good organizing hooks, the announcement falls short of issuing directives to regulate rent. washingtonpost.com/business/2023/…
Profiteers are (predictably) fear-mongering against rent regulation. Surrendering to them will be a disaster. Rent is the most significant economic issue this White House has the opportunity to tackle. They should take it. More from @KatyODonnell_: politico.com/news/2023/01/1…
The rent is too damn high.
We are proud to join @RepBowman, @SenWarren, and over 80 groups in urging the Biden Administration to crack down on rent-gouging and protect tenants.
We are proud to join @RepBowman, @SenWarren, and over 80 groups in urging the Biden Administration to crack down on rent-gouging and protect tenants.
This morning 100 tenants rallied in front of the White House, seeking a meeting between tenants and @POTUS and his signature on an executive order—supported by 247 orgs—to regulate rents: ppls.ac/eol

New paper (w/ Ed Fox @UMichLaw): The super-rich borrow against their big stock gains & consume from that, paying no tax. This is unfair. We show how to fix this and raise ~ $100 billion in a progressive, efficient way. ssrn.com/abstract=47161… 1/
It's December 2050. NY/NJ Republicans are holding up tax extenders including items like full expensing for fusion plants & extending a $23k in the CTC ($34k for young kids). They are demanding an uncapped SALT deduction, even though nobody remembers what that means anymore.
Deeper dive this AM on the Wyden-Smith CTC expansion: ⁃refundable portion goes up $1,800 in 2023 -> $1,900 in 2024 -> $2,000 in 2025, when it will be inflation-indexed ⁃15% phase-in of refundable credit starts at same $2,500 threshold, but is now done on a per-child basis

Even if you wanna be a cold economist here - Atlantic Co has weaker population & economic growth than the rest of NJ & would directly benefit from new residents. Arguments that we can't accommodate this bc it would "cost resources" are translated into "our govt isnt up to snuff"
@terrencemcd Separately, the @NJMonitor team continues to knock it out of the park on highlighting gross displays of hypocrisy by leadership in our state. We have several outlets that do a stellar job of this but we need way more of it. "Tell the truth and shame the devil," as folks put it.

Wow. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissent.
J. Sotomayor: "Ignoring race will not equalize a society that is racially unequal. What was true in the 1860s, and again in 1954, is true today: Equality requires acknowledgment of inequality."
