The Department of the Treasury announced that information about the Emergency Rental Assistance Program is available on their website. This program provides $25 billion to help states, U.S. territories, local governments, and tribal communities with rental payments and utilities for those in need. At least 90% of the funds must be used for rent, utilities, and related expenses, while up to 10% can be used for housing stability services and administrative costs. More details and a payment information form can be found online.
Simple Explanation
The Department of the Treasury put detailed rules on their website about a plan that has lots of money to help people pay rent and bills. They said most of the money should go to rent and utilities, but they didn't say exactly how places will get the money or how to check if it's used correctly.
