Fresno Housing Press Conference May 2025

Fresno Housing held this press conference on May 16, 2025, to sound the alarm about the devastating impact of the President’s proposed federal budget, which includes severe cuts to housing assistance programs. If enacted, the budget could: displace more than 5,500 families in Fresno County, impact over 15,000 adults and children, strip $72 million in rental income from the local economy, and harm over 1,300 local landlords. Local residents, landlords, and community leaders joined us to speak out against the proposal and call for urgent action.
