Reminder – We ended regulations that were adding over $100,000 to the cost of building homes.

We’re restoring local control and cutting the red tape that has driven up housing costs.

The failed Housing First model measured success by units filled and tax dollars spent — while the homeless perished. Under President Trump, we are focused on restoring people to lives of self-sufficiency.

Years of Housing First policies in New York have produced the same result: growing encampments that harm neighborhoods and fail the people living in them. HUD is requiring measurable outcomes and prioritizing treatment, recovery, and pathways to self-sufficiency.
The Bronx’s “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” is what a failed Housing First model looks like. Not only is it an eyesore, it also shows that permanent street living isn’t the answer. HUD is ending this status quo.

.@SecretaryTurner joined @RepMonicaDLC to mark the Disabled Veterans Housing Support Act becoming law under President Trump. No more counting disability pay against veterans who need housing help. Promises made and promises kept for the men and women who served. 🇺🇸
Great to stand with @RepMonicaDLC as we celebrate the Disabled Veterans Housing Support Act, which @POTUS signed into law. This means wounded veterans won’t have their disability benefits counted against them when they need HUD housing help. 🇺🇸

.@SecretaryTurner explains why HUD ended AFFH: The rule did not build a single home. It buried communities in paperwork. Under President Trump, we restored flexibility to localities that understand their own needs better than Washington.

📍 Edinburg, Texas @SecretaryTurner toured Jaguar Heights with @RepMonicaDLC — a public-private partnership and the area’s first community land trust pilot. This community land trust pilot is helping more families move from renting to owning while keeping homes affordable for the long term.

Apparent race-based lending practices go against everything our Founding Fathers fought for. HUD will ensure accountability for those who violate the Fair Housing Act.

Asking rent prices fall to their slowest pace in 3 years. Over 43% of listings now offer concessions.

Last week in Tampa, @SecretaryTurner took part in flag football drills with young athletes, hoping to inspire the next generation to get into sports. He shared how sports helped him off the field while building positive relationships between the youth and local police officers.

LA’s homeless system has spent years burning through massive budgets with almost nothing to show for it. Taxpayers and communities deserve better. HUD is requiring results.

In Los Angeles, Housing First has failed to address the root causes of homelessness. Unchecked encampments have hurt residents and small businesses.

The Trump Administration is expanding access to the American Dream — especially for first-time homebuyers. HUD, under the leadership of @SecretaryTurner, supported 1.5 million Americans in their journey to homeownership.

This is the homelessness industrial complex cracking under its own weight. HUD suspended LAHSA for mismanagement. Nearly a billion dollars later, homelessness got worse. The days of funding failure without results are over.
LAHSA just lost more of its power. In a 310-9 vote, LA County is taking over their role. Nearly a BILLION tax dollars later, homelessness got worse. The homeless industrial complex is cracking.

FRAUDSTERS BEWARE If you defraud the American public using HUD funds, you will be caught, cut off, and face justice.
Today, I am proud to sign @VP’s Pledge to Protect Americans from Fraud. EVERY official should join to stand up for the integrity of taxpayer dollars serving our most vulnerable. Accountability is here ⬇️
