In the next decade, the US population 75+ will increase by 45%, from 17 million to 25 million. As the population of #olderadults swells, so does demand for affordable housing that can accommodate changing needs.

Whatever you do, don't buy an installation service with @Lowes . They have a terrible subcontractor in NY - CRST. They sub out to a contractor who doesn't show up or call -- took weeks, and 3 days at home waiting for an install that never happpened. A nightmare on hold...
@Lowes why is the service so poor? it's been 8 months since we paid for our windows. We are still waiting ... this is not acceptable. there's no accountability in this store - Honolulu location. from ordering the wrong size, wrong windows and losing windows.
Current tenant protections have a loophole so big, any landlord can drive a truck through it. @BMaienschein @AsmRobertRivas @Damon_Connolly families are becoming homeless faster than we can house them. We need #SB567 to close the loopholes and prevent homelessness!
Resident neglect, self-dealing & misuse of Medicare & Medicaid funds in nursing homes as outlined in this NYAG lawsuit is common all over the country.
It won’t stop until Congress & the government increase oversight over nursing homes & their operators https://t.co/IMb3EZko8i
More people are losing their housing each year than we are able to re-house. Targeted rental assistance that keeps people housed who are at risk of homelessness is an essential strategy. @justiceingaging
@BMaienschein @AsmRobertRivas @Damon_Connolly families are becoming homeless faster than we can house them. Vote yes on #SB567 to prevent homelessness!

TY @MKushel for continuing to bring the evidence, the data and the compassion into your proposals for the best ways to solve homelessness. Homelessness is a housing problem, and we need to look upstream to prevent homelessness at the front end.
The Biden-Harris Administration wants the 44 million renters in this country to know that they have a right to decent, affordable housing, and that's why we outlined a set of historic standards for protections in the White House Blueprint for a Renter's Bill of Rights.

Nursing homes are a last stop for many people with disabilities who can’t find accessible affordable housing.
A new lawsuit claims the state is letting thousands people 'languish' in nursing homes who could live on their own.

In 1983, at the age of 52, a public-school teacher, frustrated by the inequity in her classrooms, enrolled in law school. She borrowed $29,000 in federal loans. Today she owes $329,309.69 in student debt. She is 91 years old. https://t.co/0HQLL0DBb1

Relying on an over-used & undermining "principle" of not changing voting rules too close to an election, this federal court-like many others in this election cycle-is permitting an illegal law to be applied to voters in the midterms when it could've banned the law w/out incident

Despite the myriad of challenges they faced, Black women and girls bravely transformed the American educational system – and continue to do so today. Their stories and sacrifices made today’s fight for educational equity possible. #WomensEqualityDay

The right to free expression is a cornerstone of our democracy. Florida's H.B. 7 targets and places vague restrictions on educators’ ability to teach and discuss systemic inequalities, and it is already chilling the speech of Black lecturers and students. https://t.co/VFlmF8oWBl
“We need a new movement that is able to… distill this particular form of racism and really challenge it.”
Nathan Connolly and Shani Mott join @ABC's @LinseyDavis after suing an appraiser and mortgage lender, alleging their home was severely undervalued because they are Black.
