This new housing bill is a joke! It's gonna cost taxpayers billions and do nothing to actually help families in need. Why should I have to pay for someone else's housing when I can barely afford my own? This is just another example of the government wasting our hard-earned money on useless programs. It's time for them to start focusing on real solutions that actually make a difference. #FamiliesFirstHousingAct #WasteOfMoney
