From GAP AVL:
“The State Senate and House voted to override Governor Cooper’s veto of the most recent “disaster relief” bill (SB382). According to an analysis by Buncombe County, the bill allocates $189,331 for rental assistance, which would be enough to support only 112 households in the County. According to our friends at Just Economics of WNC, over 158,000 households have applied for aid.”
Just Economics wrote a letter from WNC to send to our state policymakers. Sign onto the letter here as an individual or as a representative of an organization if you’d like to join in.
