The Housing Alliance Action Fund endorses candidates for public office who will be effective champions for housing justice - including protecting and expanding tenants' rights, increasing funding for affordable housing, and enacting policies that prevent and end homelessness. Candidates for the state legislature may request our endorsement by completing our state legislative candidate endorsement questionnaire no later than May 31.
If we have already endorsed a candidate in your race, it is unlikely that we will make a dual endorsement. If you believe we should consider making an exception, please contact us before completing the questionnaire. Candidates for races other than state legislative positions may also reach out to request that we consider an endorsement. We anticipate having a questionnaire for judicial races available soon. For more information, please contact Rachael Myers, rachaelm@housingactionfund.org.
