Sign the petition:
Call on your senator to support S. 1668
Help Katrina survivors come back home
Public housing residents have been blocked from returning home for over two years. The Gulf Coast Housing Recovery Act of 2007 (HR 1227 / S. 1668) would help them come home by repairing and opening thousands of minimally damaged public housing units. The bill passed in the House of Representatives, but some senators are standing in the way of the bill, supporting the interests of those who would like to see a richer, Whiter New Orleans and Gulf Coast.
Demand that your senator protect affordable housing in the Gulf Coast by supporting S. 1668 now.
There is public housing that made it through the storm. These citizens ought to be able to return back to New Orleans. Sign the petition. Make those calls.

The Angry Independent Adds:
While some are fighting to find shelter, other Katrina survivors are still being evicted from their FEMA trailers. It seems that they continue to catch Hell from several directions at once.
Here discussion from NPR's News and Notes about families being forced out of trailers.
