Ben Carson to Revise Obama-Era Fair Housing Rule
Summary from the AllSides News Team
Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson announced plans to roll back an Obama-era fair housing rule which required local governments that received HUD funding to assess and break down discriminatory barriers in housing markets. Supporters say the original regulation overburdened communities and impeded the production of affordable housing, while critics argue that the changes will further segregate areas.
