Controversial Congresswoman Ilhan Omar introduced new legislation this week that would “guarantee housing as a human right,” a bill calling for the construction of 12 million public housing units.
“No one in the wealthiest county in the world should be forced to sleep on the streets. Today I am introducing the Homes for All Act, a bold 21st century vision to build 12 million new public & affordable housing units and guarantee housing as a human right,” posted Omar on social media.
