  • Take the Pledge

  • Since December of 2019, over 200 candidates running for local, state, and federal office from all parts of the country have taken the pledge - including Sen. Bernie Sanders, Rep. Cori Bush, and Rep. Jamaal Bowman. Some state and local candidates have even started working with grassroots leaders to envision what a Homes Guarantee looks like at the state and municipal levels.

    From New York and Pennsylvania, Kentucky and Missouri, and all the way out west to Washington and California—candidates have taken the pledge because they know the Homes Guarantee is the gold standard for housing policy. Our candidates are people who grew up in public housing, they have struggled with homelessness, they are housing organizers who’ve helped build and are representative of our movement.

    Learn more about our Homes Guarantee campaign.

    Taking this pledge does not equal endorsement by People's Action or the Homes Guarantee Campaign.

  • Your Voice Matters!

  • Your voice matters! We can show that voters want safe and affordable homes by having elected officials and candidates endorse a Homes Guarantee, and put pressure on Members of Congress to follow suit until we pass legislation that helps transform housing from commodity to a guaranteed public good.

    Visit our website to download and print out the pledge, then ask your elected officials and candidates to sign on. Take a picture of them signing, then share with @PplsAction and #PeoplesActionPledge to confirm their participation.

    Thank you!
