Homeless in Arizona

Kyrsten Sinema pretends to help homeless???

  U.S. Rep. Kyrsten Sinema is a phoney baloney hypocrite who likes to pretend she is a liberal who supports the little guy.

But in reality if you follow how U.S. Rep. Kyrsten Sinema VOTES, she is a big supporter of the police state and drug war.

In this article U.S. Rep. Kyrsten Sinema pretends to care about the homeless, while she routinely votes to give the cops more money. The some cops who routinely terrorize the homeless.

U.S. Rep. Kyrsten Sinema claims to want to decriminalize marijuana or even legalize it, but she votes against it. When U.S. Rep. Kyrsten Sinema was a member of the Arizona legislator she tried to pass a law that would have flushed Arizona's Medical Marijuana Act or Prop 203 down the toilet by slapping a 300%, $900 an ounce tax on medical marijuana. Thank god that law didn't pass.

U.S. Rep. Kyrsten Sinema used to be an anti-war activist, but again if you follow her votes she routinely supports the military industrial complex.

U.S. Rep. Kyrsten Sinema is also an atheist like me, but as an elected official she seems to try to keep the voters ignorant about the fact she is an atheist. Instead of saying she is an atheist on her congressional web page she says she doesn't have a church.

It's time to boot U.S. Rep. Kyrsten Sinema out of office.

I think was kicked off the HSGP or Humanist Society of Greater Phoenix Facebook page for my negative comments about U.S. Rep. Kyrsten Sinema.

While HSGP claims to be open to anyone, they seem to be a bunch of atheist Democrats who hate Republicans and in my case Libertarians. The speakers at their meetings are almost always people who support the causes of Democrats.

I suspect Jennifer White is the main person behind their hate toward me. Jennifer White seems to attack me because I am a Libertarian. I know Jennifer White from AU-GP or Americans United for Separation of Church and State, and FFRF or Freedom From Religion Foundation.

Congresswoman who grew up homeless helps Phoenix shelter

U.S. Rep. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., shared her rise from homelessness to an office on Capitol Hill at a fundraiser this week for a Phoenix homeless shelter.

Sinema spoke to supporters of UMOM New Day Centers' $3.5 million plan to build housing for single women near its main campus for homeless families, replacing an aging downtown Phoenix facility. The organization is $1 million short of its goal.

"When you are helping UMOM, you are helping families who are facing situations just like my family faced," Sinema said. "We didn't have running water, we didn't have electricity, we didn't have a toilet ... but we survived because we had help. We had help from family members, we had help from friends, we had help from my parents' church and we had help from the government."

“...I saw firsthand how important the services are that UMOM provides to families who are struggling just to get by.” Rep. Kyrsten Sinema

"...I saw firsthand how important the services are that UMOM provides to families who are struggling just to get by," she added.

The Arizona Republic chronicled the 39-year-old congresswoman's journey from living in an abandoned gas station as a child to becoming a social worker, professor, author, attorney and politician. The Republic found the backcountry gas station that had been closed for more than three decades.

UMOM, the largest homeless shelter in Arizona, plans to purchase and renovate a hotel near 32nd and Van Buren streets to create 50 semi-private rooms with private baths for two to three single women each.

Currently, women are housed in a large room at a former factory building near downtown Phoenix known as Watkins Emergency Shelter, which cannot allow the women to stay during the day. At the new building, women will be able to stay in their rooms at any time and walk to the main UMOM campus for case management, job-training programs and life-skills classes.

A state report counted one in 227 Arizonans as homeless in 2014.Arizona has the 10th highest poverty rate in the country, Sinema noted, citing a decade-old statistic from the U.S. Census Bureau. In fact, Arizona's poverty rate has worsened to third in the nation, according to updated figures.

"It's pretty simple: Housing ends homelessness," Sinema said. "Providing these women the housing that they need and the support services they need to overcome their challenges ... will help these women get off the streets ... and put their lives right-side up."
