Media outlets began covering actual and anticipated impacts of sequestration even before implementation. During the first three months of sequestration, 220 articles reported actual and expected impacts on households. These impacts were reported in 42 states and involved actions taken by 124 public housing agencies.
This compilation of articles is available in three formats: by state of media report, by date of media report, and by impact type as categorized by National Low Income Housing Coalition. Additional impacts are expected to be reported in other program areas in coming months and this report will be updated to reflect new impacts reported by media outlets.
These articles were compiled by National Low Income Housing Coalition with the help of the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials and the Council of Large Public Housing Authorities as well as other housing organizations.
