Take Action to Oppose Harmful HUD Proposal to Remove 2025 HOME Tenant Protections; Comments Due Monday, June 1!
May 29, 2026
HUD issued on April 30 a Supplemental Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (SNPRM) that proposes removing important tenant protections from HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) regulations finalized in 2025 (see Memo, 5/11).
Examples of tenant protections HUD seeks to roll back include:
- A requirement to relocate tenants, at no additional cost to the tenant, if a life-threatening deficiency cannot be resolved the same day.
- Requirements regarding security deposits and allowing tenants to organize.
- Protection against “unreasonable interference or retaliation.”

- Submitting your own comments, urging HUD to keep important tenant protections in the HOME regulations. Comments are due Monday, June 1, at 11:59 pm ET!
