Prosperity Indiana

‘Nonpartisan housing campaign assists low-income Indiana voters beyond election’ A statewide campaign provides low-income voters in Indiana with housing resources for the upcoming general election. The ‘Our Homes, Our Votes’ campaign was led by Prosperity Indiana. The nonpartisan campaign is a part of the larger National Low Income Housing Coalition’s ‘Our Homes, Our Votes’ 2024 campaign. The goal is to educate voters on both local and national housing issues and boost voter turnout. The campaign used candidate surveys, webinars, data and other resources to highlight affordable housing as an issue. https://lnkd.in/gzd7v3yb

By city’s own standards, pay rate fails to measure up Andrew Bradley, senior director of policy and strategy for Prosperity Indiana, said state and local officials need to consider the rising cost of living, including housing, when deciding wages for public-sector employees and contractors paid with taxpayer dollars. “Policymakers must ensure that we invest in public-sector jobs that are economy-boosting, not economy-busting,” Bradley told IBJ in an email. His organization sets the living wage in Marion County even higher than $18 an hour. It found in a report with the National Low Income Housing Coalition that full-time Hoosier workers need to earn $19 an hour to afford a modest, two-bedroom apartment at fair-market rent. For Marion County specifically, that increases to $20.48 an hour. https://lnkd.in/gBsDfSFF
