allyschweitzer This is a very good piece. Wish it could have sourced more perspective from voucher users. The mom with 3 kids doesn’t help stereotypes either. There’s no demographic data about who is utilizing vouchers in areas like upper NW. More info is always helpful.

allyschweitzer Vouchers are a way to subsidize landlords without addressing the need for affordable housing.
