A place to call home has always been a basic need and yet the lack of safe, affordable housing remains an issue today.
As Americans go to the polls in 2020, many are feeling the crunch of economic fallout due to the COVID crisis. This has uprooted the lives of those living paycheck-to-paycheck and turned “home” into an expense many simply cannot afford.
Mass evictions are a looming possibility and Americans are devoting more and more of their dwindling salaries to monthly housing costs. As these problems persist, housing is a growing concern during this election cycle and an issue that garners bipartisan support.
On the sidelines of the 2020 Democratic Convention, The Hill will host a discussion with policymakers, housing advocates and industry experts to explore what can be done to ensure all Americans have access to a safe and affordable home.
