概要

The Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program faces significant uncertainty as Congress finalizes FY2026 spending, with proposed cuts and policy changes that could reshape rental assistance in America.

FY2026 Section 8 Funding Proposals:

  • House bill: Cuts assistance to 181,900 households
  • Senate bill: Cuts assistance to 107,800 households
  • Current program serves 2.4 million households—only 1 in 4 who qualify
  • Continuing resolution funds program only through January 30, 2026

Proposed Policy Changes:

  • Two-year time limits on rental assistance for able-bodied adults
  • Stricter income verification requirements
  • Potential restrictions for families with undocumented members
  • Possible shift to state-managed block grants
  • Elderly and disabled exempted from time limits

Property owners with significant voucher exposure and housing authorities should plan for potential volatility in the Section 8 program.
