There’s millions of empty homes, millions more than there are homeless people, even. They’re just owned by businesses who see them as assets rather than individuals who live in them. Prices are high because housing is commodified in the name of enriching the few instead of HOUSING PEOPLE.

Americans are suffering under the weight of sky-high housing prices.
Today, I’m re-introducing my bill with @warnock.senate.gov and @cleaver.house.gov to build 3 million new homes, bring down rents by 10%, and cut red tape that drives up costs.
Congress must act.
