Eviction help hotline for federally supported renters

If enacted, HUD would set up a phone hotline within one year to help with eviction issues. You could use it only if you rent a covered unit in federally supported housing or in a property with a federally backed mortgage. Help could include grants, loans, subsidies, contracts, cooperative agreements, or other financial help. It would not include insurance or guarantees of loans or mortgages. Congress would authorize funding starting in fiscal year 2026 and each year after, but would still need to approve the money.
