It didn't stop there. In this appropriations bill, we also saw a focus put on housing to make sure that we in this House understand housing to be a core public good and a fundamental human right, and not simply just a tradable commodity to increase the wealth for those already wealthy while the majority of this country are finding it hard to put roots down in an affordable, warm, healthy, secure home where they can keep their families and their children connected and forming relationships in their own communities, because people can feel stable and secure in the place that they live. So I was very pleased to see $570 million set aside to support the delivery of 8,000 new homes—6,000 of which will be public housing, and 2,000 which will be transitional homes—and making sure that we are responding to those families and those people who at this moment are unable to find affordable and permanent housing.
