MISSOURI ACTION NEEDED: COVID-19 and Housing/Homelessness
Missouri is experiencing a public health crisis. COVID-19 affects and will affect our poor and working class community members the most, only exacerbating the state of emergency they already endure every day. We can and must stand united to ensure the well-being of our whole community through this crisis. Rewriting the rules to protect our most vulnerable will build a healthier and stronger Missouri for generations to come. People who are housing-insecure or currently homeless are at a higher risk of being exposed to the virus, becoming ill, and suffering catastrophic health outcomes. Low-income tenants are also at risk if they get ill and/or cannot work (because they're monitoring symptoms, at risk, watching kids, etc.) and therefore can't make their rent. We demand state action to: ==> Institute a rent/mortgage suspension ==> Enact an immediate, comprehensive statewide eviction/foreclosure moratorium ==> Ban utility shut-offs and mandate universal service ==> Provide homes and expanded services for people experiencing homelessness SIGN ON IN SUPPORT and we will follow up with next steps.
