H.R. 1877: Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing Act of 2009
Sponsor:
Moore (D - WI)
Official Title:
A bill to amend the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act to reauthorize the act, and for other purposes.
Status:
4/2/2009: Introduced
4/2/2009: Referred to House Financial Services Committee
Commentary:
This bill would require the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development to promulgate regulations imposing criminal penalties for the “unlawful disclosure of data” from “community-wide homeless management information systems.” Disclosure restrictions would, presumably, also be specified in regulation.
