Senators Merkley and Wyden urge halting changes to the Continuum of Care program, warning of increased homelessness.
Quiver AI Summary
Senators urge halt to proposed changes: U.S. Senators Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden, along with 42 Senate Democrats, have called on HUD Secretary Scott Turner to immediately stop changes to the Continuum of Care (CoC) program. They warn that alterations could jeopardize housing for nearly 200,000 vulnerable individuals, returning them to homelessness.
Concerns over funding cuts: The Senators highlight a proposed cap on funding for permanent housing, which currently accounts for 87% of CoC funds. They argue that limiting this to 30% contradicts the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act and undermines effective strategies for addressing homelessness.
Calls for effective governance: The letter emphasizes the need for timely communication from HUD and adherence to legal requirements. The Senators assert that the proposed revisions, if implemented, could exacerbate homelessness and create chaos in communities nationwide, urging a responsible approach to renew existing CoC grants for fiscal year 2025.
