Join today’s (February 25) national HoUSed campaign call from 4:00 to 5:00 pm ET. The call will cover the recent directive from Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to terminate at least half of HUD employees, and the impact cutting staff would have on HUD’s ability to administer the programs communities rely on. We will also get an update on the federal budget process, and learn how advocates can take action to ensure enough funding for voucher renewals in a final spending bill. Register here.
