Trump's HUD is preparing to gut federal support for long-term housing programs. The changes could put 170,000 formerly homeless people at risk of losing their housing — many of whom are disabled or over 50. The cruelty is endless.

Powerful piece from Ann Oliva @naehomelessness about the importance of HUD staff & funding. The Admin. & many in Congress are taking other actions that threaten the economic security of millions of families that could also increase #homelessness. https://t.co/eqwIFxg7EN

The federal civil servants at HUD have a job to do, and it's a vital one for our nation and our communities. We need to let them do their jobs.
