The film "The Florida Project" depicts a new reality: families who live week to week in motels, unable to afford permanent housing.

The United States is thwarting the advancement of millions of its citizens, a UN rapporteur says.

“To love the poor means to combat all forms of poverty, spiritual and material."

"The Florida Project" tells the story of a mother and daughter in the hidden world of extended-stay motels in the city of Kissimmee, Fla.

During an exchange with a nun at a town hall, the Republican leader of the House argued that government is ineffective in fighting poverty.
