The House Appropriations Committee has approved its Fiscal Year (FY) 2027 T-HUD spending bill along party lines, proposing approximately $71.4 billion for HUD, nearly $5.9 billion below current funding levels. The legislation includes significant reductions across several HUD programs, and while it is less severe than the President's budget request, PHADA has serious concerns about its impact on HAs and the low-income families they serve. The bill text and committee summary are available on the Appropriations Committee’s website.
The bill now moves to the full House, with the Senate expected to release its own proposed budget later this summer. As in prior years, final funding levels will be determined through bipartisan negotiations, although a Continuing Resolution remains possible if Congress cannot complete action before the September 30 deadline. PHADA will provide updates through The Advocate, Breaking News alerts, and eBlasts as the process continues.
