NAA Provides Updates on Federal Assistance Freeze
The details surrounding the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) memorandum freezing federal financial assistance across agencies continues to evolve. As of yesterday, the White House had rescinded the memo but later stated it was not a recission of the freeze. It appears that rental assistance (Section 8) is not impacted. NAA has been actively engaged and continues to monitor the situation. Click here to read more from NAA and bookmark the page to get the latest updates.
