You know where a lot of unhoused neighbors find safety to sleep at night in DC? Parks.

The feds owns roughly 90% of D.C.'s parkland. And as anyone who lives here knows, NPS isn't the best steward of it.

We rewind to our conversation with a working, unhoused man in Nashua, New Hampshire, who shared his single wish for the elections. His message was simple yet urgent: healthcare for his unhoused neighbors and funding for the people instead of foreign wars.
