Anderson Earns an “A” Rating from the Greater New Orleans Housing Alliance

In the lead-up to Election Day, Democratic congressional candidate Quentin Anthony Anderson received an “A” rating from the Greater New Orleans Housing Alliance (GNOHA). This rating reflects Anderson’s strong commitment to addressing the pressing issues of affordable housing, infrastructure, and the urgent need for real solutions to the ongoing insurance crisis affecting so many families in Louisiana.

As we navigate an era marked by significant housing challenges, it’s clear that a bold approach is necessary. Anderson has consistently advocated for policies that prioritize the needs of his constituents. With many residents facing skyrocketing housing costs and inadequate support, the need for action has never been more critical.

Throughout the year, Anderson has emphasized the importance of increasing the supply of affordable housing for low-income families, providing direct financial assistance to prevent foreclosures, and securing essential funding for the National Housing Trust Fund. His commitment to ensuring that these resources are used effectively is a cornerstone of his vision for a fairer housing landscape in Louisiana.

“This rating is not just an endorsement; it’s a reflection of the values we all share as a community,” Anderson stated. “Everyone deserves access to safe and affordable housing, and with bold, unapologetic advocacy in Congress, we can make that a reality in Louisiana.”

Anderson is also focused on improving the overall quality of life in neighborhoods throughout the 6th Congressional District. Anderson believes that increasing oversight of housing quality standards is vital to ensuring that federal funds are not being used to support subpar living conditions.

Quentin’s “A” rating from GNOHA is a testament to his dedication and the comprehensive policy proposals he supports. As we gear up for the final push before Election Day, the message is clear: putting housing first is not just an ideal; it is a necessity for the future of Louisiana.

 

Anderson Addresses the Crisis in Shreveport, Calls for Bold Action to Protect Residents

On Sunday, Quentin Anthony Anderson, Democratic candidate for Congress in Louisiana’s 6th District, visited The Pines apartment complex in Shreveport, where he delivered a powerful statement addressing the ongoing crisis resulting from mass evictions and utility cutoffs at several local apartment complexes.

“As I stand here at The Pines, it’s clear that the situation in Shreveport is more than just a local crisis — it’s a stark reminder of why we need forceful, unapologetic advocacy at the highest levels of government,” Anderson stated. He emphasized that the conditions at The Pines, Jolie, Villa Norte, and other complexes are not only a failure of local management but also of a system that allows absentee landlords to neglect their responsibilities while residents suffer.

The crisis, which led to a state of emergency declaration by Mayor Tom Arceneaux, has left many residents without basic necessities like water and electricity. Anderson criticized the system that permitted these conditions to fester, stressing the need for strong leadership in Congress to hold landlords accountable and protect the rights of tenants.

“The fact that the city had to declare a state of emergency to address basic human needs like water and electricity – in 2024 – shows just how broken the current system is,” Anderson continued. “We need bold, decisive action to protect our communities and ensure that what is happening here in Shreveport never happens again.”

Anderson’s statement was accompanied by a call for stronger federal oversight and funding to ensure that every American has access to safe, sanitary housing, regardless of their location. He vowed to make housing security a top priority in his campaign, promising to fight for the resources and policies necessary to prevent such crises in the future.
