HoUSed Update
Sep.29.2021
The historic $3.5 trillion Build Back Better Bill -- which contains three of the HoUSed campaign’s top priorities -- is awaiting a vote on the House floor. The Bill includes $90 billion for rental assistance, $37 billion for the National Housing Trust Fund and $80 billion for public housing repairs; it would create nearly a million new rental assistance opportunities and build 630,000 new affordable homes nationally. Typically at least 10% of these totals will come to New York State. However, we anticipate that these funding levels are threatened by negotiations with the Senate, which requires that all 50 Democratic senators support the Bill.
