Kemp backs HUD housing plan despite BushRow
Secretary Jack Kemp told a House subcommittee he supports the Bush administration supplemental housing bill and requested a $44 million 1990 Community Development Block Grant fund to back innovative low income homeownership. He seeks to withdraw certain Nehemiah and Urban Development Action grants. A Ford Foundation funded study by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities and the Low-Income Housing Information Service finds nearly half of poor renters spend 70 percent of income on housing in 1985. The report titled A Place to Call Home notes most poor renters pay over 30 percent of income for housing. Data derive from 1985 Census and HUD. The 80 page report is available from CBPP and LIHS.
