Housing Discrimination Groups Sue DOGE and HUD for Cutting Funds
Briefly

Four fair housing organizations have sued HUD and DOGE after they lost around $30 million in grant funding essential for combating housing discrimination. The groups, located in Massachusetts, Idaho, Texas, and Ohio, claim that the funding cuts were abrupt and without warning, severely impacting their ability to support those facing eviction and discrimination. The lawsuit contends that these actions represent an egregious misuse of power, as the funds are critical for enforcing the Fair Housing Act, which prohibits discrimination based on various factors. Local organizations play a key role in managing fair housing complaints across the U.S.
