This funding was intended for climate-friendly housing and initiatives. However, McKeown's controversial past includes the sale of a low-income housing complex, resulting in an 80% rent increase, which has raised concerns about her commitment to equitable housing. Critics argue that her focus on carbon neutrality compromises the housing equity her organization purports to support.
A New York woman, Sadie McKeown, secured nearly $7 billion for climate initiatives, previously implicated in forced sales of low-income housing that raised rents dramatically.
McKeown's nonprofit, the CPC, received $6.79 billion from the EPA to create climate-friendly housing, aligning funding with environmental goals but facing criticism over affordable housing.
Her tenure includes a controversial sale of an affordable housing complex in Westchester, leading to an 80% rent spike, raising concerns about housing equity.
Despite her focus on carbon neutrality, critics argue that McKeown's actions contradict the equitable mission her organization is supposed to uphold.
