This testimony provides background on the persistent effects of historical, systemic, and structural bias in our housing and financial services systems, and how this has contributed to a disproportionate impact on the Latino community in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also provides recommendations to consider for future pandemic relief legislation that fully and equitably responds to the most vulnerable families and communities in our nation.
