I think about Marsha from Chicago, who is here with us today. She is a senior working two jobs to afford rent. She’s on 18 waiting lists for affordable housing options.

I think about David who is also here from Chicago, who lost his leg on the job and quickly found the impossibility of finding affordable housing that is accessible.
