Bipartisan Policy Center’s recent poll of U.S. opinions on homelessness shows 31% of Americans see the federal government as carrying the most responsibility for addressing homelessness – more than state (22%) or local (17%) governments. This presentation will highlight how federal housing reforms such as strengthening affordable housing development incentives, expanding eviction prevention resources, and creating a permanent emergency rental assistance system would expand housing opportunities for unhoused people.
