The Housing Opportunities Through Modernization Act of 2016 (HOTMA) received bipartisan support and was passed by Congress on July 14, 2016. The legislation makes significant positive reforms to the Section 8 Project-Based Voucher (PBV) program, including allowing housing authorities to project-based up to 20 percent of its authorized voucher allocation, with up to an additional 10 percent for targeted populations. The bill also allows more supportive services to be provided to homeless families and individuals, families with veterans, and the disabled and elderly. HUD is still in the process of implementing several provisions enacted by HOTMA.
