We need to pay very close attention to this. Is it strange that the senate is dragging their feet passing any kind of income assistance? Rentors assistance? Are they lazy? Are they just not cooperating with the Democrats who have passed such legislation? There are 395+ bills passed by the house and sent to the senate, some of which address the housing issue and the unemployment benefit issue. The republican senate has not acted on these. Why? There may be another answer even more insidious, but very consistent with the republican strategy of voter suppression when a majority of the electorate is another party. There are 100 days till the election. It takes 90 days(atleast in California, because I am a landlord here)to evict someone. Without an address, it becomes that much harder to vote. Who are these rentors who will be potentially evicted? Democrats, Independents, the people that normally vote more to the left are the ones who would be most affected. Voter supression has already taken place by closing polling places in low income neighborhoods. Voter rolls have been aggressively purged in republican run swing states and states whose demographics have started to move to the left. Gerrymandering has been taking place for years but courts have started to challenge this old way of republicans suppressing the vote in their favor. The new methodology for voter suppression might just be keep them homeless and hungry. This way that population, poor, minority, disabled, cannot vote. We need to pay attention. These people will stop at nothing to win an election.
