AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would create a federal rental assistance program under the Section 8 housing voucher system for veteran families with low incomes. Starting in fiscal year 2026, eligible veteran families would be entitled to rental assistance, with the income limit for eligibility rising each year until it reaches all low-income veteran families in fiscal year 2030. Veterans with a dishonorable discharge or a general court-martial discharge would be excluded, though officials could waive this for certain areas. Owners of 5 or more rental units could not refuse to rent to someone because they hold one of these vouchers, and Veterans Affairs disability benefits would not count as income. The program would receive permanent funding of whatever amount is needed to serve all eligible families, plus fees of up to $4,000 per eligible household for housing agencies.
