Court Blocks HUD’s Plan to Reroute Homelessness Funding
A federal judge blocked HUD’s 2026 funding changes intended to shift Continuum of Care dollars from permanent housing to temporary housing and services, ruling the agency violated the Administrative Procedure Act by skipping the required notice-and-comment process; this marks the third time a judge has blocked HUD’s changes during the Trump era, and HUD may attempt similar policy shifts for fiscal 2027.
