100% of the stats HUD Sec. Scott Turner invents are false.

X post by Scott Turner with a screencap of his appearance on CNN. Caption says: “75% of our homeless Americans are addicted to drugs.

78% suffer from mental illness.

Providing a bed doesn’t address the root cause of homelessness.

We must put Treatment First.”

Trump's HUD seems to constantly be looking for new ways to make it harder to help everyday people. We deserve better.

HUD’s proposal to eliminate the use of disparate impact analysis will remove another crucial tool for enforcing fair housing law.

Every week it’s something new: immigrants, unhoused people, LGBTQ people, disabled tenants. Trump's HUD seems more interested in taking things away from everyday people than ensuring we have safe, affordable housing.

Subhead: 'Housing officials were told to exclude emotional support animals and tighten the definition of a service animal when granting accommodations for disabled tenants.'

🚨 Today the Trump's HUD published another proposed rule meant to make it harder for everyday people to survive the housing crisis.

"Restoring dignity" by making people homeless? HUD with yet another rule meant to make surviving the housing crisis more difficult for everyday people.

X post from the Department of Housing and Urban Development featuring a screenshot of a website with a statement that reads "Secretary Scott Turner Moved to Restore Self-Sufficiency and Dignity to Those Living in Public Housing". The post's caption says: "RESTORE SELF-SUFFICIENCY

@SecretaryTurner
announced a new proposed rule to provide all public housing authorities and Section 8 project-based rental assistance owners flexibility to implement work requirements and time limits for non-elderly, non-disabled work-capable adults in HUD-funded housing."
