Contact Senator Schumer, Senator Gillibrand, and your Congressperson to restore Fair Housing funding for Long Island today! https://secure.everyaction.com/K2BPVSfC_UmC8aN8sLEhLg2The Trump Administration is trying to end the Fair Housing education and enforcement entirely by zeroing out the HUD Fair Housing Initiatives Program (FHIP) budget in the FY26 federal budget. This would jeopardize the critical work we do to educate about and combat housing discrimination.
Members of Congress need to hear from you this week while they are home on break. As the activists in the fair housing movement, your expertise is invaluable to congressional members as they make policy decisions that will impact communities across the country. More information.
