[I’m working on legislation to] increase access to transitional housing for those in recovery.
Increase access to transitional housing for people in recovery.
Occurrences
Evidence
119th Congress bill text says it would "reauthorize and expand the pilot program to help individuals in recovery from a substance use disorder become stably housed" and is titled the "Supporting Transition And Recovery Through Housing Act of 2025". The text states Ms. Bonamici introduced the bill and it was referred to committee.
Assessments
Bonamici introduced H.R.1231, the START Housing Act of 2025, to reauthorize and expand a pilot program helping people in substance-use-disorder recovery become stably housed. That is a serious, directly relevant federal legislative attempt during her current House term. However, the bill remains only introduced/referred to committee, with no enactment or implemented expansion of transitional/recovery housing access shown. Because the promised outcome has not been delivered, but she made a material attempt, this is not fulfilled with an effort badge.
