The bill would amend the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act to let recipients request waivers of the expenditure limit for fiscal years 2027 through 2030. Requests would need to explain local needs, planned fund use, consistency with the recipient’s Consolidated Plan, and public input; recipients would also notify affected subrecipients and Continuums of Care. The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development would publish requests, decide within 60 days, and deny requests from recipients that relocate or threaten to relocate people or property without providing specified housing options.
