Homelessness is a crisis in Lane County and across the nation (Letters, 1/21). Local initiatives are helpful, especially when combined with national ones. There are bills in Congress to build more affordable housing, raise the minimum wage and provide a refundable renter’s tax credit. By writing and calling our members of Congress, asking them to pass these and other housing initiatives, we can help bring an end to homelessness.

Help keep truly independent
local news alive!
As the year wraps up, we’re reminded — again — that independent local news doesn’t just magically appear. It exists because this community insists on having a watchdog, a megaphone and occasionally a thorn in someone’s side.
Over the past two years, you helped us regroup and get back to doing what we do best: reporting with heart, backbone, and zero corporate nonsense.
If you want to keep Eugene Weekly free and fearless… this is the moment.
