Rep. Ilhan Omar delivers a powerful speech in her own defense as the GOP looks to oust her from the Foreign Affairs Committee.
"I am an American."
BRAVO!!!!!!👏👏👏
🚨House @COVIDOversight Cmte just released report documenting egregious & illegal behavior by corporate landlords during CDC eviction moratorium. Fed gov’t must hold these landlords accountable, as @NLIHC urged thruout the pandemic🧵https://t.co/MzkV1GvoIP
By the end of April 2022, $28.5 BILLION in Emergency Rental Assistance has been spent, preventing 1.36 MILLION+ evictions! -@VictoriaBourret@NLIHC#RuralTalks
What makes it hard to prevent evictions in #RuralAmerica, especially Tribal areas?
❌Lack of local govt administration capacity
❌Varying Income limits
❌Lack of clarity in guidance
-@VictoriaBourret@NLIHC#RuralTalks
We’ve seen how covid has created more struggles throughout the country, but especially in Rural. That’s prompted us to reexamine our work to be more impactful and have. Rural communities require much more attention than they’re now getting. -@LISCDeniseScott#RuralTalks
News flash: If you outlaw abortions, ban mask mandates, dictate what educators can teach in schools, and stop people from voting, you're not the party of "limited government."
We Advocate for #BuildBackBetter because:
✅This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
✅Stable housing is tied to healthcare, education & economic mobility!
✅#HousingisInfrastructure!
No Matter What, robust housing investments MUST be included!
Absolutely not. It’s exhausting to keep having to fight this fight *with Democrats*, to keep having to make case for why housing investments are FOUNDATIONAL to Building Back Better. But make no mistake - we will fight to keep housing $ in any compromise bill
🚨🚨🚨YES! @POTUS to extend CDC eviction moratorium, for renters in communities w/surging COVID (covering 90% of renters throughout the country), through October 3! 🚨🚨🚨
It’s outrageous that in the middle of a deadly pandemic the eviction moratorium has ended. I’m proud to stand with @RepCori, @AOC and so many demanding the government respond to the needs of working people and extend it. We cannot allow people to be thrown onto the streets.
We had no question whether you were on our side @BernieSanders. Thank you for showing up.
Our movement will save lives. We need all hands on deck for a federal eviction moratorium.
We’re still here. We have to reconvene the House and vote to reinstate the eviction moratorium to put an end to the eviction emergency.
11 million lives and livelihoods are on the line.
There’s more the Biden administration can and should do - right now - to protect tenants from eviction when the moratorium expires this weekend. With #DeltaVariant surging, their action (or inaction) could be a matter of life & death. https://t.co/xa63DkiELF
