NLIHC Releases Annual
Rental Housing Affordability Study
Source: http://www.nlihc.org
Minimum Wage Workers Unable to
Afford Rent Anywhere in Nation
Today, Thursday, September 9, at 2:15 p.m. in S-207 of the
U.S. Capitol, the National Low Income Housing Coalition
(NLIHC) will release "Out of Reach: The Gap Between Housing
Costs and Income of Poor People in the United States." The
report is an analysis of the relationship between rental
housing costs and incomes in every state and local
jurisdiction in the United States. The research finds that
nowhere in the country can a full time minimum wage worker
afford the cost of housing at the fair market rent.
NLIHC President Dr. Sheila Crowley, and Cushing N. Dolbeare,
Founder and Chair Emeritus of NLIHC and author of the
report, will be joined by Secretary of Housing and Urban
Development Andrew Cuomo, Senators Edward M. Kennedy (D-MA)
and John Kerry (D-MA), Rep. David Bonior (D-MI), and Steve
Coyle, CEO of the AFL-CIO Housing Investment Trust in
releasing the report.
At a time when Congress is considering both a minimum wage
increase, and cuts to proposed housing subsidies for the
poor, Out of Reach demonstrates the need for action at the
federal level to close the gap between wages and housing
costs in the U.S.
The report is available on the NLIHC website, at
http://www.nlihc.org, and can be ordered for $35 (non-NLHC
members) or $25 (NLIHC members) from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
