Statement From Council of Large Public Housing Authorities Executive Director Sunia Zaterman
 

The Council of Large Public Housing Authorities, which represents 70 of the nation’s largest public housing authorities (PHAs) in cities across the United States, congratulates Dr. Ben Carson on his nomination as Secretary of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

The Council of Large Public Housing Authorities (CLPHA), representing more than 70 of the country’s largest and most innovative   housing authorities, calls on the Administration and Congress to reject the draconian proposal to slash more than $6 billion in funding to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), including $2 billion in cuts to public housing.
