HUD proposes work and time limits for rental aid, affecting up to 9M, with exemptions and support services.
HUD has proposed new rules requiring work and time limits for federal rental assistance, aiming to promote self-sufficiency among able-bodied, non-disabled, non-elderly recipients.
The changes, which would bypass Congress, could affect up to 9 million people, though seniors, children, and people with disabilities would be exempt.
The proposal builds on limited pilot programs and requires support services like job training.
Critics argue it relies on stereotypes, as most recipients who can work already do so, and warn rigid limits without support could increase homelessness.
Only about 140 of 3,300 housing agencies currently have authority to impose such rules, and some, like Keene Housing in New Hampshire, have abandoned similar limits.
The rule is set to be published for a 60-day public comment period.
