JACKSON, Wyo. — On Friday, July 17, More Perfect Union released a 20-minute YouTube video covering the housing crisis in Jackson. The video caused quite the stir on social platforms. On Instagram, the video has 5,043 reposts as of Monday morning and over 1,500 comments.

The More Perfect Union newsroom covers politics, policy, labor, business and economics and self-describes as a “nonprofit newsroom whose mission is to build power for working people … [reporting] on the real struggles and challenges of the working class from a working-class perspective.”

Discussions around housing have been boiling over recently, especially after a heated debate around the 90 Virginian Lane project. Town Council is slated to discuss the Virginian Lodge housing development plan today, and the County Commissioner candidates discussed housing extensively during the candidate forum last week.
