New SEVRA Bill

Leadership of the House Financial Services Committee have circulated a draft of the Section 8 Voucher Reform Act, in advance of a hearing possibly on May 13, 2009. The draft is similar to a version of SEVRA the House passed in 2007 (H.R. 1851), but adopts a number of improvements from a version introduced in the Senate in 2008. (The House must act again in the current Congress in order for legislation to be enacted.) CBPP has prepared an analysis comparing the provisions of the circulation draft to current law, and highlighting the changes from the bill the House passed in 2007.
