After a week where I felt like the pit of despair in my stomach kept sinking deeper, it seems especially valuable to reflect on some actions and moments of joy and rejuvenation.

Here's to some things that helped me persist despite the horrors 💫

Democratic lawmakers seek changes to rent regulation A new bill would amend New York’s rent stabilization law, eliminating a vacancy study requirement and giving more power to localities to set standards.

The REST Act will empower local officials to keep their communities affordable by making it easier to opt into rent stabilization AND allowing localities to expand who is covered.

Trump’s Proposed Sweeping Spending Pause Would Harm Americans The administration’s proposed action appears to be illegal and could halt funding for programs for child care, school lunches, and rental assistance.

Here's my piece on Trump's illegal pause of federal spending.

Trump proposed a sweeping order and the WH privately sent memos to begin carrying it out while publicly walking it back.

A judge has temporarily stayed the action.

I talk about what's at stake.

There are different approaches to *more* chairs, though.

We don't have to play a game. We don't have to concede to a competition between advantage (privilege) and (systemic) disadvantage where we provide more choice to the privileged and hope that trickles down to everyone getting a seat.

Bluesky academics, lets get to know each other! Quote & tell us: 1) a project you are working on & 2) an odd idea/theory you aren’t working on but keep thinking about

1) good cause eviction + rental housing stability
2) SNAP churn and recipient housing mobility

If anyone at #2023APPAM hasn't seen the Mel Brooks movie High Anxiety, that would be some fun viewing for your time in this hotel.

What better way to start an account than with a pet pic? Here's Coco saying "I may have knocked over the dust buster but can I still place a paw or two inside your forbidden office/sewing room?"
