    The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has issued an interim final rule to simplify and clarify the regulations related to affirmatively furthering fair housing (AFFH). This rule returns to the older, pre-1994 understanding that requires grantees to make active efforts to promote fair housing but removes detailed planning mandates that were previously enforced. The simplified rule aims to reduce regulatory burdens, allowing local communities more flexibility to address their specific housing needs. Public comments on this rule are invited within 60 days from the effective date.

    Simple Explanation

    HUD wants to make it easier for cities and towns to promise they are trying to make housing fair for everyone, but now they don't need to make detailed plans on how to do it. They hope this way, each place can focus on what they need most, but some people worry it might make it harder to check if they're actually helping everyone fairly.
