With $17.6B in available resources, #Minnesota must lead to #endhomelessness & secure the dignity of home for ALL of us! There's no excuse, #mnleg: pass @BringItHomeMN rent support, & make a historic investment in Housing Infrastructure Bonds. Fund home like the priority it is!

[Rinal Ray @Rinal_Ray]

Grateful to start my day in this way!

[Second Harvest Heartland @2harvest]

@P_S_P is a safety net when families have no where else to go and need shelter in Hennepin County and have had few empty rooms at our family shelter for the last several weeks. Homelessness can be prevented and is not ok. In @D4Commish's words, we're in trouble.

[Angela Conley @D4Commish]

The eviction moratorium ended recently and I want to share what exactly has been happening since its not really getting much coverage and we're in trouble. 🧵

"#BringItHomeMN is the right bill at the right time. We have the resources to ensure every Minnesotan gets the rent support they deserve. If fully realized, there is no single policy initiative that will reduce homelessness better than this one." @mikehowardmn

[Rinal Ray @Rinal_Ray]

Thank you for your advocacy @RepAishaGomez + @RhondaOtteson to invest in shelter infrastructure. And @nicque thank you for sharing the family driven and trauma responsive investments we want to make at @P_S_P that holds the dignity of families that experience homelessness.
