Republicans impeach one of their own for years of blatant corruption
Republicans: Why would Joe Biden do this?
Now that we’ve started the impeachment we need to carry it to term. Don’t want to prematurely abort this fully functioning impeachment, after all, we all know that impeachment begins at first declaration.
Our investigation found that one cause of the prolonged vacancies is the flawed online waitlist system the state rolled out four years ago. Massachusetts replaced town-by-town waitlists with a single pool of applicants that 230 local housing agencies draw from. But the state failed to implement an efficient system for selecting potential tenants. Understaffed and underfunded local agencies have to screen applicants for income, criminal background and other eligibility criteria. Apartments are left in limbo as some candidates turn out not to qualify. Applicants often indicate they would accept housing in many towns, but then reject offers from communities that are far away from their current location.

He said the agency spent six months contacting 500 people who were on the waitlist for a three-bedroom apartment, before it finally found one who responded and qualified for the unit. “The whole sense of helping residents in your community is gone,” he said.
Horrible inefficiencies and a terrible process. Good journalism and some terrible governance.
