Add work requirements and time limits to rental assistance

The document says “shouldWho acts: HUD, CongressHow: regulationp. 509 in the PDF
What the document says

“implement maximum term limits for residents in PBRA and TBRA programs”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 509

The chapter asks the department to restrict eligibility where admission would fail to encourage upward mobility, to reduce what it calls the implicit anti-marriage bias in housing assistance, to strengthen work and work-readiness requirements, and to cap how long residents can stay in project-based and tenant-based rental assistance. It says Congress should also legislate against provisions that discourage work and marriage.

What the document actually says

“implement maximum term limits for residents in PBRA and TBRA programs”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 509
That sentence, in plain words

Set a cap on how long people can stay in these programs.

What this is about

Rental help has no time limit now. The book says there should be one. It also wants people to work to keep the help.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. 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 book 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.
