The article discusses the challenges faced by HUD under the Biden administration, highlighting Scott Turner's concerns regarding ongoing homelessness, which has increased by 18% in the past year. Senator Warren emphasizes the need for bipartisanship to tackle the housing crisis and expresses her support for Turner's nomination, contingent on the completion of his FBI background check. There are calls for urgency in obtaining this information to avoid unnecessary delays in the nomination process.
‘The committee's customary practice is to hold a vote on a nomination only after the FBI background investigation is complete,’ Warren stated concerning Turner's nomination.
‘Even according to their own surveys, homelessness has risen 18% in the last 12 months and 33% since 2020,’ Turner noted about the current housing crisis.
