March 3 Webinar on H.R. 3700, “Housing Opportunity Through Modernization Act”

The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities will host a March 3 webinar, “Understanding the Impact of H.R. 3700 on Tenants and Applicants.” This webinar will review H.R. 3700’s likely impacts for tenants in federally-assisted housing programs and applicants for rental assistance. Presentations by CBPP’s Barbara Sard and Will Fischer will be followed by time for questions and answers.

H.R. 3700, the “Housing Opportunity Through Modernization Act,” passed the House unanimously on February 2 (see Memo, 2/8) and now awaits Senate action. The bill would make numerous changes to the administration of HUD rental assistance programs, improve the project-basing of vouchers, and make other modifications related to inspections, the Family Unification Program, and the treatment of high-income households.
