NLIHC and partner organizations invite you to join advocates from across the country on a May 10 webinar about new proposals from the Trump administration and Congress that would cut housing benefits by increasing rents, imposing work requirements, and setting de facto time limits for HUD-assisted households. Advocates are also urged to sign a national letter to Congress, already signed by more than 1,200 organizations, opposing cuts to housing benefits for struggling families.
In addition to providing an overview of the harmful proposals, webinar panelists will discuss how advocates can effectively communicate with policymakers and the public about the negative impacts of the proposed changes and about alternative strategies to move families toward economic self-sufficiency.
The webinar will be held on May 10 at 1:00 pm ET.
Speakers include:
- Elayne Weiss, National Low Income Housing Coalition
- Will Fischer, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities
- Deborah Thrope, National Housing Law Project
- Stanley Hardy, New York City Housing Authority
