NLIHC Submits Comments about Proposed HOTMA Voucher Implementation Provisions

NLIHC submitted comments to HUD regarding proposed regulatory changes to implement various provisions in the “Housing Opportunity Through Modernization Act of 2016” (HOTMA) pertaining to the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) tenant-based and project-based voucher (PBV) programs (see Memo, 1/23). In addition to submitting its own letter, NLIHC signed onto two other comment letters, one from the Housing Justice Network pertaining to HCVs and one from the Preservation Working Group (PWG) pertaining to PBVs. NLIHC’s letter reinforced four points in the PWG letter and highlighted comments offered by the Consortium for Citizens with Disabilities about supportive housing, the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities about extending contracts, and the Corporation for Enterprise Development about manufactured housing.
