President Biden’s Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is taking steps towards requiring state and local governments to submit “equity plans” to the federal government to display compliance to fair housing rules.

President Biden’s HUD submitted a proposed rule that would require local governments to submit plans and reports relating to civil rights concerns or else risk losing subsidies from the federal government, the Washington Examiner reported. The requirements are part of a rule called “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing” and are said to follow through on one portion of the 1968 Fair Housing Act, which mandated that localities “affirmatively further” fair housing in response to historical segregation.

The communists are constantly pushing their agenda on multiple fronts. Those that say they represent the likes of me just seem to be flatfooted at best and unconcerned at worst.

I just wonder exactly how bad things will have to be in order to get the attention of the masses?

Am I reading this correctly? Is Biden’s HUD seriously worried that housing projects don’t have enough minorities?

They have the process backwards: innocent until proven guilty. Localities should be assumed to be in compliance until they are declared in court to be otherwise. The burden of prove is on those making the allegations.

Doing the same thing to the banking industry.

Denying a loan to an unqualified POC is racial profiling.

Approving a lot to an unqualified POC is predatory lending.

See how that works?

Just the elites wanting to slum up our nicer parts of town and bring in the gang and thug culture to destroy everything. Meanwhile, their gated communities will be exempted.

Start with Martha’s Vineyard, Beverly Hills, The Hamptons and Palm Beach and then we’ll talk.

Someone remind me which part of the Constitution authorizes Congress and or the federal government to require states and localities to submit ‘equity housing’ plans?

So many people are never told by the media about things like this. And if people do hear about it they are told it is all good and they have no idea how this will affect them.

Maybe the “government” could look into these massive companies like Black Rock that are owner/landlords of hundreds of thousands of rental properties.

Or, the politicians who have been diverting funds meant for affordable housing projects to their pet projects like bike paths and parks for decades?
