***MEDIA ALERT*** Everybody’s Home: Report reveals quarter of a trillion dollar govt housing failure

Everybody's Home < 1 mins read

****MEDIA ALERT****

In the midst of a historic cost-of-living crisis, Everybody’s Home is urging the federal government to scrap tax concessions for property investors and build social housing across Australia.

The call coincides with the launch of the campaign’s Written Off report, which highlights how negative gearing and capital gains tax concessions will be a quarter of a trillion dollar mistake that’s made housing affordability worse, and how scrapping them could fund the building of half a million social homes.

Campaign spokesperson Maiy Azize will go over the report’s findings and speak about soaring rents amidst the cost-of-living crisis.

Who: Everybody’s Home spokesperson Maiy Azize

When: Monday January 22 from 8.30am

Where: Mural Hall, Parliament House, Canberra
