The Rural Housing Service (RHS) at the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is proposing to amend its regulation to implement changes related to the development of a sustainable plan for the Rental Assistance (RA) program, including new RHS flexibilities in the managing of the RA distribution and integrate new asset management policies. The regulation changes are designed to provide management flexibility in the use of funds, more economically utilize the RA, and to improve the efficiency in managing the assets in the Direct Loan portfolio. Comments on the proposed rule must be received by November 23, 2020.
