My statement on the news from Minneapolis.

With our most vulnerable community members facing a tremendous threat due to federal food benefits set to run out Nov. 1, we are stepping up & deepening our support.

Today, we joined the Community Foundation and will deploy $500K for food insecurity: https://camb.ma/4oP0Aj2

Grateful for this honor and for the important work @abundanthousingma.org does advocating for housing policy across the Commonwealth.
