I need to consult confidentially with someone with extensive experience helping people maintain Section 8 housing eligibility in New York.
I'm looking for someone with direct knowledge of "If you do <x>, the government will do <y>" for lots of different scenarios.
I don't want to just do a Google search and call random people; I'm hoping for personal recommendations.
Please DM if you can help. Please boost for reach.
Thanks.

🧵 4/6
4th, #Republicans want to cut #GovernmentSpending on #SocialWelfare prgms incl #SocialSecurity, #Medicare/#Medicaid, #SNAP/#FoodStamps, & COVID relief. It's #ClassWarfare blaming poor for #nationaldebt. Yes #SocialServices is a fair % of the budget, but so is the military & they arent cutting that. Besides for every $1 the gov puts into SNAP we get about $1.79 in economic activity. It's true for other #PublicAssistance prgms like #TANF, #Section8 & others.

#Project2025’s #RussVought, #Trump’s director of the Office of Management & Budget [#OMB], previously endorsed an end to the federal #voucher program. He [falsely] wrote in 2022 that the #Section8 program in particular “brings with it crime, decreased property values, & results in dependency & subsidized irresponsibility.”

…the expected overhaul would most likely amount to more than just a technical change, resulting in fewer federal dollars for #LowIncome #families on top of additional cuts planned for the rest of the Dept of #Housing & Urban Development [#HUD]. On Thurs, the #Trump admin took the first steps toward potentially selling the agency’s HQ in Washington.

Admin ofcls recently discussed cutting or canceling out the #vouchers & other #RentalAssistance programs & potentially replacing them with a more *limited* system of #housing grants, perhaps sent to states, acc/to 3 people familiar with the matter…. The overhaul would be included in #Trump’s new #budget, which is expected to be sent to #Congress in the coming weeks.

The potential changes primarily concern federal #housing #vouchers, including those more commonly known as #Section8. The aid generally helps the poorest tenants cover the monthly costs of apartments, town homes & single-family residences.

Trump Administration Threatens Housing for Millions in “War on the Poor”
Proposed cuts to Section 8 put 3.3 million people at risk of eviction and homelessness. -
Amid a worsening national affordable #housing & #homelessness crisis,
#Trump’s admin is determined to reshape #HUD’s expansive role providing stable #housing for #LowIncome people, which has been at the heart of its mission for generations.At a June congressional #budget hearing, #HUD Secretary Scott Turner argued reforms like time limits will fix *waste* & *fraud* in #PublicHousing & #Section8 voucher programs while motivating low-income #families to work toward self-sufficiency.

#Families, kids most at risk of losing #HUD housing w/Trump’s time limits
>1M #LowIncome households—most of them working families w/ #children —who depend on the nation’s #PublicHousing & #Section8 voucher programs could be at risk of losing their homes under the #Trump admin’s proposal to impose a 2-yr time limit on rental assistance.
That’s acc/to new research from NYU, obtained by AP, which suggests the time restriction could affect as many as 1.4M households….

Maine #housingauthorities can’t access funds after Donald #Trump freezes #grants
#Section8
The memo announcing the freeze from Trump’s acting director of the Office of Management and Budget said it would be effective at 5 p.m. Tuesday, but the executive directors of both Portland and Bangor’s housing authorities said they were already unable to access federal funds by early Tuesday afternoon. The director of #MaineHousing, the state housing authority, said that all public #housingauthorities in Maine were facing the same issue.

#Section8 (2022)
After avenging the murder of his family a former soldier is sprung from prison and recruited by a shadowy government agency.

Very cool: a few years ago the affirmatively furthering fair housing rules allowed Boston, Cambridge and Newton to increase #section8 #HousingChoiceVoucherProgram payment standards on a per-zipcode basis. Looks like it's working to better house tenants (many vouchers were going unused before) and help #desegregate #GreaterBoston

Bill will allow stealth ‘no-fault’ evictions
Without hard limits on in-tenancy rent increases, landlords can use large rent hikes to force unwanted tenants out.
