The Housing Unhoused Disabled Veterans Act (H.R. 965), passed by the House in February 2025, seeks to expand housing opportunities for disabled veterans by amending the United States Housing Act of 1937. The bill excludes VA disability benefits under chapters 11 and 15 of title 38 from income calculations used to determine eligibility for Section 8 supported housing and future HUD-administered housing programs. By excluding these benefits, the act aims to remove a critical barrier that prevents many disabled veterans from qualifying for much-needed rental assistance and affordable housing.
