Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.

They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.

The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing.
Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.

Pete Buttigieg is a great speaker, but this clip shows what I think many transgender people are afraid of when it comes to how Sarah McBride's reaction will play.

"Sarah McBride is teaching us how to navigate these tough issues."

And the "how to navigate" is separate bathrooms apparently.

it disgusts me the national democratic party barely pushes back at this attempt from the right to wind back LGBTQ rights decades after claiming to be the party of LGBTQ rights
