President @JoeBiden makes funding for non-congregate sheltering of people who are homeless 100% reimbursable! Currently FEMA pays 75% & states/cities have to pay rest (& often can’t). We’ve pushed for this for 10 months.

Holy shit, they gave us a mile when they usually give an inch. Pass this news on to your orgs and pressure the fuck out of local leaders to get shelter for every person who needs it. Make some serious noise about this people.

    Yes, but once something is granted it becomes something that is easier fought to keep than it would be to receive initially.

    It will be something to hopefully rally around later when threatened
