In my housing policy, we will build ten million units of social housing in ten years; end exclusionary zoning;
pass a Tenant's Bill of Rights; and end all forms of housing discrimination.
We will also end Wall Street's predatory purchases of available homes. Housing is not a commodity; it is a necessity. 2/4

This is not America as it should be. The greatest moral task of our generation is to remove the invisible chains of economic constriction that bind a majority of our citizens to lives of chronic financial stress.
Where the middle class cannot thrive, democracy cannot thrive. The housing emergency is a threat to
both. 4/4
