Rural Housing Accessibility Act

This bill requires rural public housing agencies (PHAs) to handle housing vouchers when families move from one area to another. Specifically, if a family holds a voucher from an original PHA and seeks housing in a new rural area, the new PHA must either cover the cost using its own funds or bill the original PHA for up to 12 months. It directly affects rural PHAs and families using housing vouchers who relocate within rural communities. The key change limits billing from the original PHA to a maximum of 12 months, reducing financial barriers for rural housing mobility.
