Thursday’s Advocacy & Think Tank Round-Up
- Enterprise Community Partners and other leaders of the #Capshurtcommunities campaign have arranged a National Call in days on September 15 and 16, 2015 to “to educate Members of Congress on just how devastating these cuts are to low-income children, families, seniors, and veterans in our communities.” The #Capshurtcommunities campaign’s goals are to “Realign the federal budget to preserve and expand access to affordable rental housing for low income households while continuing support for homeownership opportunities for low and moderate income families.” According to the campaign’s leaders the low spending caps which Congress has placed on Federal housing programs hamper the U.S.’s ability to meet its diversity, educational and economic mobility potentials.
