A growing number of Americans are ending up homeless as soaring rents in recent years squeeze their budgets.
According to a Jan. 25 report from Harvard’s Joint Center for Housing Studies, roughly 653,000 people reported experiencing homelessness in January of 2023, up roughly 12% from the same time a year prior and 48% from 2015. That marks the largest single-year increase in the country’s unhoused population on record, Harvard researchers said.
Right, this round. Next round for sure.
Before there is comprehensive voting reform it won’t work at all. It’s more likely to get whatever candidate you least support elected.
Chicken and egg problem.
You can not get voter reform with a Democrat or Republican. They will not support legislation that make their own Party less powerful.
