Billionaires (now TRILLIONAIRES) buy their way into politics, then put policies in place that ensure we can't buy it back.

One person should not have this much power. Period.

Housing advocates disrupted the Cicero Institute's homelessness conference to reject an agenda built on criminalization and incarceration.
As Shameka Parrish-Wright said, real solutions come from people directly impacted—not billionaire-backed think tanks.
Housing Not Handcuffs.
