Friends outside of DC, we need your help. We have no vote in Congress, yet some people in Congress want to write our laws AND they want DC to lock people up for being homeless. Tell Congress NO. https://t.co/A7nynxVJlO

The federal law enforcement surge is not keeping us safe, it's making people fearful to be outside. For people who have no choice but to be outside, it is particularly scary. Unhoused people are being targeted and harassed *because* they have no homes, no other reason.

Please take action before Mon, July 14! Ask the DC Council to oppose the mayor's plan to send families back into congregate shelters, reject further harm to RRH families, & invest in housing vouchers that end #homelessness for DC's lowest-income residents! @WashLegalClinic
