Latest Action · September 8, 2023
Referred to the Committee on Financial Services, and in addition to the Committee on the Judiciary, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
This bill would prohibit the federal government from spending any money to implement the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Equity Action Plan, effective immediately upon enactment. The legislation also blocks HUD from finalizing a proposed rule on "Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing" that was published in February 2023, preventing the agency from issuing any final rule that is the same as or substantially similar to that proposal. The bill affects HUD's efforts to address housing equity and fair housing practices across the country. No specific funding amounts or timelines beyond the effective date are mentioned in the legislation. The bill was introduced in September 2023 and referred to the House Committee on Financial Services and the Committee on the Judiciary.
