PHADA, other Groups ask @HUDgov to delay flawed cash management plan—neither HUD nor PHAs will be ready to implement the required changes by January 1, 2026. Read the letter at: https://bit.ly/48oq29X.

Informative closing day of LF25. We heard from Reps. Waters (D-CA) & Flood (R-NE); HUD-PIH & HUD Office of Recap staff; an update on Emergency Housing Vouchers; and what's new with LIHTC. Plus member visits to the Hill. Conference done, work continues. Thanks to all! #PHADALF25

A big thank-you to the PHADA LF25 panel for shedding light on how new LIHTC provisions will shape affordable housing preservation and PHA repositioning to Section 8. #PHADALF25

Thanks to PHADA members for sharing their perspectives and plans on the upcoming end of the Emergency Housing Voucher program. It's crucial that Congress continue to provide funding for this crucial program! #PHADALF25

PHADA has strongly advocated for a delay in NSPIRE V implementation. HUD announced today during LF25 they will so. More information coming soon. #PHADALF25

CPA Jason Casterline held an informative LF25 session on "cash management." PHADA is concerned that HUD's new rules will negatively impact resident services, increase costs, and create more burdens for underfunded HAs. #PHADALF25

PHADA is further concerned that HUD is instituting new procedures through notices rather than going through rulemaking process. There are questions about the legality of this approach. #PHADALF25 #HousingPolicy

NSPIRE V deadline looms, but most PHAs aren’t ready. Urge HUD to align the rollout of NSPIRE V with the updated inspection standards coming soon to protect landlord participation and housing choice. #NSPIREV #VoucherProgram
