The State Senate Ways and Means Committee released its proposed FY27 budget yesterday. Overall, housing/homelessness programs fared less well than in the House budget, e.g., a decrease in funding for RAFT and winter shelter funding zeroed out. Thanks to our statewide partners for their summary analyses:
CHAPA
Massachusetts Housing and Shelter Alliance
Massachusetts Budget and Policy Center
Budget amendments are being filed this week and we will join advocacy efforts next week. Please stay tuned for action steps!
