Penalties for HUD for Failing to Enforce Public Housing Work Requirements

This act introduces financial penalties for the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) if it fails to enforce community service or self-sufficiency requirements for public housing residents. This means housing agencies will need to more closely monitor whether individuals in public housing meet specific conditions, potentially affecting the availability and rules of these programs.
Key points
The HUD Inspector General will annually track federal subsidies provided to individuals not complying with public housing community service requirements.
An amount equal to these non-compliant subsidies will be rescinded annually from HUD's management budget, encouraging stricter enforcement.
The goal is to ensure public housing residents actively participate in community life or work towards self-sufficiency.
