HR 889 Re-checks Congress.gov for new actions and updates the bill's status, and fills in any sponsors, committees, or related bills that are missing. It does not re-pull sponsors/cosponsors/committees/related — those rarely change — and it skips all work if nothing has changed upstream, so it's cheap to click.
Deliver Housing Now Act of 2025
To amend the Omnibus Consolidated Rescissions and Appropriations Act of 1996 to remove the limit on the number of public housing agencies the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development may add to the moving to work demonstration program.
Summary
This bill amends federal housing law to remove the existing cap on the number of public housing agencies that may participate in the Moving to Work demonstration program. The amendment changes the language from permitting "up to 30" agencies to requiring "not less than 15" agencies to be included in the program. The Moving to Work program allows participating public housing agencies greater flexibility in managing their operations and serving residents.
