APA: Legislation Takes Aim at Fair Housing Plans and Federal Data

In the early days of the new Congress, legislation was again introduced to undo new fair housing planning regulations and limit housing data provided to local and regional planners. While the legislation is not new, the potential for undermining HUD’s Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing rule (AFFH) and targeting federal data is all too real.

Issues of housing, social equity, and access to data are critical APA legislative and policy priorities, and APA will again vigorously oppose the legislation.
