At HUD we have a saying, you can’t be healthy if your home is sick.
That’s why I have made it a priority to expand our efforts to improve health and safety in the homes of the residents we serve nationwide.

I later joined the incredible advocates led by @WeHouseOregon’s @ORKevinCronin and snuck a pic with @RonWyden! We agreed on the need for housing first and that criminalizing homelessness is dehumanizing and just “shuffling around the problem”
