#ProjectRoomKey, the FEMA-paid program providing hotel rooms to the unhoused, allows security to unlock & enter participants’ rooms without notice at any time.
Many unhoused women have experienced sexual violence. Can’t imagine why that’s uncomfortable for them.

The first place I lived in LA, a maintenance worker unlocked my door and entered while I was showering.
He claimed he thought I was scheduled for maintenance. Maybe that’s true.
It was TERRIFYING, and that’s without the trauma history living on the streets will give a person.

A large subset of the LA unhoused population consists of working people with exactly three things standing between them and housing:
1. First month
2. Last month
3. Deposit
Denying them privacy and refusing to treat them like competent adults provides none of the three.
