Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) Secretary Ben Carson has heard us! He has taken steps to roll
back at least some of the worst components of the Obama-era attacks on private
property and federal overreach.
Specifically, HUD
announced that it is withdrawing use of a computer assessment tool that maps every
single neighborhood to gauge if the community is in compliance with “fair
housing” grant rules.
This “tool,” enforced by
HUD, has made every community which applies for its grants to complete an
“Assessment of Fair Housing,” using its computer program – or “assessment tool”
to identify all “contributing factors” to housing discrimination.
The information to be
gathered includes a complete breakdown of race, income levels, religion, and
national origin of every single person living in the community. HUD then uses
this information to determine if the neighborhood meets a preset “balance,”
determined by HUD.
Second, HUD has demanded
a detailed plan showing how the community intends to eliminate the
“contributing factors” to this supposed “imbalance.” The community is then
obligated to do this assessment every five years!
To produce the
community’s plan for compliance, HUD rules demand that a wide array of
“interested parties” participate in its creation. Guess who they are?!!
Planners. Civic activist organizations. Affordable housing developers.
In short – all the
people who have a stake in gaining political power or big bucks from the grant
programs. This is nothing but social engineering of every neighborhood in
America.
Remember, just a few
weeks ago I warned of cities like Minneapolis and the state of Oregon taking
steps to eliminate zoning protections for single family homes. That assault on
private property is a direct result of the HUD AFFH regulations. The goal is to
eventually force everyone into stack and pack high rise apartments in the name
of Sustainable Development Smart Growth.
It is the destruction pf
private property rights and property values. And it is a ploy by the federal
government to dictate policy over local office holders.
Secretary Carson is
trying to take action to roll back this outrageous federal overreach leftover
from Obama and restore private property protection.
Secretary Carson knows
that the only true fair housing is private property in which the owner is able
to build personal wealth. That is the only true way to eliminate poverty – not
social engineering that damages the rights and futures of everyone!
But those powerful
Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) like the National Fair Housing Alliance
are outraged and have filed a law suit to stop Carson.
Two months ago, when
Secretary Carson asked for public comment on his plans to roll back the AFFH
rule, APC submitted 1,000s of comments from our supporters opposing the very
existence of the rule.
He heard us. He is
trying. But he is being blocked every step of the way by those socialist forces
who are determined to destroy the very existence of private property along with
your ability to choose where and how you want to live.
According to these
social engineers, for you to live in a home of your choosing is now racist and
a social injustice!
My American Policy
Center (APC) is one of the only groups in the nation fighting for the
protection of private property.
I am sounding the alarm.
I am teaching local activists how to fight back. I am reaching out to local and
state officials to warn them of the trap if they accept these grants.
