Dr. Ben Carson's HUD To 'Reinterpret' Affirmative Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) rule
 [Powerline] I’ve been critical of President Trump today. But few days go by without me being happy he defeated Hillary Clinton.Here’s a reminder of why. Yesterday, Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson announced that his agency will "reinterpret" the ultra-instrusive Obama housing rule known as Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH). The rule was designed by the Obama administration to seize federal control over local zoning for the purpose of creating neighborhoods that comply with the left’s race-based vision of where people should live. We discussed it here, among other places. Secretary Carson didn’t say exactly how he plans to "reinterpret" AFFH. However, he told the Washington Examiner that he doesn’t believe in the "manipulation" associated with the rule or with the burdens it imposes on local communities. As a candidate for president, he called it "a doomed-to-fail attempt to "legislate racial equality." Posted by: Besoeker 2017-07-21 |
