Rep. Cori Bush Reintroduces Unhoused Bill of Rights

HeadlineAug 02, 2023

Missouri Congressmember Cori Bush has reintroduced the Unhoused Bill of Rights, which could provide universal housing in the U.S. by 2027, helping some 1.5 million people who now live on the streets. Bush herself was once unhoused and forced to live in her car with her children. She said, “We have the power and money to end the unhoused crisis. We just need the will to reorient congressional priorities.”
