At a time when the stock of affordable housing is in decline, families spend an increasing amount of their income just to keep a roof over their heads. It is essential that Congress take actions to support, preserve, and build affordable housing. As a strong advocate for public housing residents, I support efforts that combine housing market-driven solutions, federal support and state and local initiatives.
I support legislation to protect seniors from foreclosures, make Federal Housing Administration mortgage insurance more affordable, and I back a sense of the Congress that homelessness in America should be eliminated.
The City of Los Angeles has the nation’s largest population of chronically homeless people. This is unacceptable. I introduced the Housing Homeless Veterans Act to address our veteran homeless problem by directing housing vouchers for homeless veterans to areas of the country where they are needed most. As a member of the Congressional Homelessness Caucus I will continue to work to address this growing problem.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_blog layout=”std-blog-fullwidth” blog_standard_style=”inherit” category=”veterans” enable_pagination=”true” pagination_type=”default” load_in_animation=”none” order=”DESC” orderby=”date” posts_per_page=”10″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
