Tell Congress that you want at least $1 billion for the National Housing Trust Fund and urge their support in moving legislation through the Senate and the House to get it done. Every $1 billion investment in the Trust (at $100,000 per unit of housing) will create 15,100 construction jobs and 3,800 jobs in ongoing operations. Also, local economies benefit as low income families can afford to spend more money on goods and services when they are not spending half or more of their income on housing.
Our goal is to create an early-December blizzard of phone calls from every corner of the country during these two days to demonstrate strong support for start-up funds dedicated to the National Housing Trust Fund.
Please call the toll-free number (877) 210-5351 for the congressional switchboard and ask to be connected to the housing staffer for Senator Feinstein, then Senator Boxer, and then your representative. If you do not know who your representative is, please visit this link.
