Overview: HCM 2011 is a concurrent memorial that urges the U.S. Congress and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to take action to address homelessness in the state.
Purpose and Intent: The memorial expresses the state legislature's concern over the growing homelessness crisis and calls on the federal government to provide additional resources and support to help address the issue.
Key Provisions:
- Calls on Congress to increase funding for HUD's Homeless Assistance Grants and other programs that provide housing and services for the homeless.
- Urges HUD to work with the state to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy to reduce homelessness.
Affected Parties and Impacts: The primary affected parties are individuals and families experiencing homelessness in the state, as well as the state and local governments responsible for addressing the issue. The memorial seeks to leverage federal resources and support to supplement the state's own efforts.
Procedural and Timeline Considerations: HCM 2011 has passed both the House and Senate and has been transmitted to the Secretary of State. As a concurrent memorial, it does not require the governor's signature and serves as a formal expression of the legislature's position to the federal government.
