Rep. Bush Holds Protest for Eviction Moratorium from Sleeping Bag, Surrounded by Food

EXCERPT:

BUSH: "It's just — triggering. But when you hear the cries of others, when you hear the suffering of others, we are already fighting a battle, and losing a battle, because there are people who slept out last night. The night before, there are people who are already unhoused and we don’t have enough — we don’t have enough shelters, we don’t have enough — we don’t have the safe housing for them right now. And that's a failure, that’s another moral failure on our society. And so, to then say, yeah, seven million more, you can go while I go on a vacation, seven million more, you can hit the — go ahead, like, that was your decision to be in this position. No, no! This is a systemic problem. This is a structural problem that can be handled by better policy decisions. So, that’s why we’re out here. That’s why all of these people showed up. There were more people out here last night.”
