    Limiting assistance may hurt working families with children, but could expand voucher access for others.

    Low-income Americans are at risk of losing homes subsidized by the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s rental assistance as federal officials consider restructuring HUD policy, according to an Associated Press report. Proposed changes include a two-year limit on rental assistance programs to limit waste and fraud in public housing and Section 8 voucher programs.

    At a June congressional budget hearing, HUD Secretary Scott Turner said the housing assistance programs have deviated from their original purpose of temporarily helping Americans in need.

    “HUD assistance is not supposed to be permanent,” he said.
