Everyone deserves an affordable home, including our neighbors, friends, & coworkers who are immigrants. But a Trump Admin plan would take assistance away from certain immigrant families and create additional barriers to rental assistance for everyone. https://t.co/0Blsxjjm2F
President Trump said he’d make housing more affordable, but his 2026 budget proposal makes devastating cuts to rental assistance & other programs that help people afford housing.https://t.co/L9Avoi7i1g
More tax cuts for the wealthy paid for by slashing support for families in poverty is the absolute wrong direction for our nation. TANF needs to be improved, not cut.
The House Republican budget released today by Budget Committee Chair Jodey Arrington is an extreme giveaway to the wealthy at the expense of families who already have a hard time making ends meet.
With the March 14 funding deadline approaching, the House 2025 approps bill seeks the deepest cut ever to housing vouchers. It would fall $4.3 B short of what’s needed and cause 750,000 fewer people to receive assistance. https://t.co/i3yq8SbVZF
New brief by @WCTharpe explores a common theme in GOP proposals to slash support for low-income people: shift huge costs to states, forcing them to cut benefits or limit eligibility. Now, Republicans are reportedly considering this as a way to cut SNAP. https://t.co/ekFXlOv8IX
Every child deserves access to needed health care, including transgender youth. A Trump admin EO issued last night aims to ban transition-related care, deny coverage of it for children of federal workers and military service members, and target providers who offer this care.
Today, HHS Secretary Nominee Robert F Kennedy Jr. is set to appear in the Senate. One area to watch: What is his position on the future of #Medicaid and marketplaces, which together cover nearly 100 million people,helped shrink the uninsured rate, and improved access to care?
This new OMB memo is certain to cause chaos and could result in serious harm to a broad swath of people and communities around the country. https://t.co/OGUGJO3NQu
HUGE WIN for #DACA recipients & immigrant youth! Barriers to the #ACA will be removed as of November for those w/DACA, approved for SIJ, & other kids. More work to be done, but this is reason to celebrate! Our @CLASP_DC response:

🥳 Congrats to @CaraBrumfield of @CLASP_DC on her appointment to @uscensusbureau's 2030 #Census Advisory Committee! Back in December, Cara graciously joined us for our event on young women's well-being in the U.S. (#ICYMI, you can watch it here: https://t.co/trKte8cKnp).
Check out my colleague @JuanCG1123's incisive and needed perspective in a @CLASP_DC blog on the reversal of Biden's rhetoric and policies on immigrants. #SOTU2024
