🚨Action in Raleigh TODAY🚨
Team Democracy went to the NCGA today to remind our representatives that North Carolinians need help and need it NOW!
We demand the release of the $4.2 billion in "rainy day" funds. We cannot wait. #ReleaseOurMoneyNC
Thanks to ALL who've joined in welcoming our lawmakers back to work and for reminding them there is CRITICAL work to do: #ReleaseOurMoneyNC and save lives now!
To make our message even louder, please check out this toolkit w/ resources for phone calls: https://t.co/SEsUxaVvRR
North Carolina cannot recover from this pandemic without a major investment in protecting our people. #NCGA must #ReleaseOurMoneyNC and deliver on healthcare, housing, and worker protections.
$200 million would be the monthly cost for the state to cover rent for the 243,000 North Carolinians are behind on rent
Just in case we haven't made it clear: #NCGA has $4.2 BILLION dollars in unreserved funds
We HAVE the money. #ReleaseOurMoneyNC provide #HousingJusticeNow
If the #NCGA leadership really wants to promote "family values", they will protect families from being kicked out of their homes right now DURING A PANDEMIC.
#ReleaseOurMoneyNC, stop evictions, and keep families housed together.
The inaction of the leaders at the #ncga is unacceptable. We need #HousingJusticeNow#ReleaseOurMoneyNC

#ReleaseOurMoneyNC Many of us celebrated Rev. Dr. MLK, Jr's birthday--his dream for all people, for the worker, for families--his beloved community. Let's use the $4.2B and rainy day funds to strengthen us all during this crisis.
More than 15,000 coronavirus cases and over 300 deaths are estimated to have resulted from evictions from the ~3 summer months when there was no moratorium on evictions in NC.
#ReleaseOurMoneyNC and extend the evictions moratorium through September 2021 #HousingJusticeNow
