New housing
Looks like we may have opportunity to help our fellow man. Just got out
of jail? You get a new house. Managed to sneak across the border? You get a new house. Earn a good living and pay taxes? Sorry, find your own house. https://www.commondreams.org/news/20...deal-framework Omar's $1.2 Trillion 'Homes for All Act' Heralded as Ambitious Addition to Green New Deal Framework The 10-year plan to build millions of sustainable, affordable housing units is called "a new mile marker in the progressive left's efforts to stake out a national housing agenda." According to a fact sheet (pdf) from Omar's office, the legislation "establishes a new vision of how 21st Century public and affordable housing should look and operate" by requiring that all new housing units built with the allocated funds: Remain permanently affordable; Be integrated, to the best possible extent with public transit and vehicle alternatives like walking and biking, while allowing for flexibility to accommodate the needs and resources of rural, metropolitan, and Tribal areas; Be designed, built, and operated to the highest possible environmental standard, with a focus on minimizing energy costs and achieving carbon neutrality; Prohibit any discrimination against residents based on sexual orientation, gender, criminal history, or immigration status; Be located in communities that are in compliance with the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing rule in order to ensure fair and equal access; And provide residents with free, voluntary wrap-around services that help address the needs of those experiencing chronic homelessness or housing instability罵ike access to healthcare, employment, or education assistance, childcare, financial literacy class, and other community-based support services. |
