What the document says

“``(iii) deny any waiver request submitted under subparagraph (A) by a recipient that relocates or threaten to relocate individuals or their property without providing emergency shelter, rapid rehousing,”

To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 503

The new subsection requires the Secretary to deny a waiver request from a recipient that relocates or threatens to relocate people or their property without providing emergency shelter, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, permanent supportive housing, or other permanent housing options.

What the document actually says

“``(iii) deny any waiver request submitted under subparagraph (A) by a recipient that relocates or threaten to relocate individuals or their property without providing emergency shelter, rapid rehousing,”

To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 503
That sentence, in plain words

The housing agency must turn down some requests. That covers a place that moves people or their things. It also covers a place that threatens to do so.

What this is about

The bar applies where nowhere is offered instead. Shelter, rapid rehousing, or a lasting home would count. Without one of those, the waiver must be refused.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
