The Trump administration is escalating its efforts to dismantle federal rental assistance, targeting the Housing Choice Voucher Program—commonly known as Section 8—through budget cuts, new eligibility requirements, and sweeping administrative directives. The changes could displace millions of households, including families with children, seniors, disabled tenants, and low-wage workers.

The Housing Choice Voucher Program is the largest federal rental assistance initiative, serving approximately 2.3 million low-income households across the country. According to data cited by USAFacts, the program provides stable housing to 2.7 percent of U.S. residents. Nearly a quarter of those living in subsidized housing have a disability, 33 percent of households include minor children, 74 percent are headed by women, 41 percent are headed by people over the age of 62, and 66 percent are headed by people of color.
