Part of what makes Minneapolis such a vibrant place to live and work is that we have active residents of all ages.

Betsy Hodges

Public housing is more than just a place to live, public housing programs should provide opportunities to residents and their families.

Carolyn McCarthy

Higher wages for American workers are not just good for American families, they are good for our economy. I will keep fighting for a raise for hard working Americans so our families can afford housing, help their children get a quality education, and secure a good retirement.

Jan Schakowsky

Our cities with their swollen populations and cliff dwelling high-rise buildings are breeding places for loneliness. Neighborhoods crumble under the housing development bulldozers and families scatter in pursuit of jobs and professions everywhere. In a world of wheels, old and comfortable groupings of people have disappeared.

Allan Fromme

I don't think I would live outside of the Northwest. I think the quality of life in Portland is really good. People move from intense, high-powered jobs, and move to Portland, work half as much and live twice as good. They can afford bigger houses, or they can actually afford to buy a house, they can work the minimal amount and still get by. I think there's a really strong sense of community there. It's beautiful.

Carrie Brownstein

Connecticut has a vibrant farming community - the products they produce are world-class and we want to help support the continued growth of this important sector of our state's economy.

Ned Lamont

While it's absolutely important that we build housing for our low-income residents, when we are talking about opening up hundreds of sites for housing, we should be trying to build affordable housing for all of our residents struggling to pay rent. That means housing for teachers, for nurses, for janitors.

London Breed

We have an aging infrastructure in Connecticut that greatly impacts the daily lives of our families and the development of our businesses. Modernizing our infrastructure would employ thousands - it would improve the quality for our residents and advance us towards the state we deserve to be.

Ned Lamont

We're moving from a generation who gave little thought as to the built environment and accepted housing that was neither pleasant to look at, nor to live in or around, to a new century where there's a real desire for housing that's affordable, flexible, and places community at the heart of its thinking. For architects and the public it's an enticing prospect.

Will Gompertz

Connecticut's arts community provides an incredible amount of good for our state and supports thousands of jobs.

Ned Lamont

After political crusades for 'affordable housing' ended up ruining the housing market and much of the economy with it, many of the same politicians are now carrying on a crusade for 'affordable health care.' But what you can afford has absolutely nothing to do with the cost of producing anything. Refusing to pay those costs means that you are just not going to continue getting the same quantity and quality - regardless of what any politician says or how well he says it.

Thomas Sowell

I will fight for affordable housing for teachers, police, fire fighters, and families in all our neighborhoods.

London Breed

As more and more families decide to build their future in Connecticut, it's vital we invest in housing.

Ned Lamont

Families who get evicted tend to live in worse housing than they did before, and they live in neighborhoods with higher poverty rates and higher crime rates than they did before.

Matthew Desmond

It's about having a comprehensive vision that includes things like social supports while providing a high-quality education. It seems obvious, but when you look at schools that are really struggling, you don't see high-quality education.

Pedro Noguera

I think we as a country have definitely got to do better when it comes to housing people of all backgrounds. Not only can the less fortunate afford housing but fewer people of all kinds can afford it.
