hud's being sued. in the u.s. district court for the northern district of illinois eastern division. and the plaintiff is alleging that the existing rule 213 is not in compliance with the supreme court decision. in this pleading you took the opposition position. i quote from your own brief here. stating, quote, the supreme court's holding in inclusive communities is entirely consistent with the rules reaffirmation of hud's long-standing interpretation that the fha authorizes disperate impact claims, unquote. which is it, mr. secretary, you have taken a position in court fueling that rule 2013, as is, is consistent with the supreme court case? and your testimony today is just the opposite. >> no, it is not. we uphold the principles of disparate impact. we've used that in a recent complaint -- >> mr. secretary, let me ask you this. is your testimony today remain, though, that rule 213 is consistent with the supreme court's holding in inclusive communities, which is the position that you took in this filing in april

hud has not responded to cnn's request for comment, but hud told the post that the secretary does not to refer to transgender individuals and called the report staff. julia branstetter is the host person for transgender women. thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having me. >> people walked out of this meeting because they heard something they thought was very discriminatory toward trans americans. when you heard about this, what do you think? >> unfortunately it's a heinous and grievous insult but a common one to try to justify stripping away our rights. what we know is that transgender people are not only likely to be the victims of sexual view leol but the very laws that protect our rights that ensures rights to trans people for hud programs, they have zero impacts on violence. there are 20 states that allow trans people to use certain restrooms, for example, and the notion that there is is nothing but a myth to put people down. >> the trope is that trans people that he's trafficking in are perpetrators of violence when, in fact, they are the recipients of violent acts. you h

in allowing for hud to have oversight and regulatory authority. and like to point to my colleagues on the other side of the aisle, this is not an idea that comes from the radical right. president obama commissioner has proposed the same reform. i have drafted legislation that would do just as you proposed but some of my colleagues have expressed reservation that reforming the fha into a government corporation would impact hud's funding for other programs. my view, the receipts from fha mortgage insurance would be available to offset the other hud spending. i've authored to get my colleagues to rewrite or have input in the section in the bill but so far i have not received any takers. my question is, could you briefly discuss how to achieve an independent fha without jeopardizing hud's funding. >> thank you for the question. i did very much enjoy the time i spent in your state. interestingly enough, we have not said anything about the receipts all begins swept into a particular area. that obviously is not going to be a particular problem. the reaso

the hud department would not tell us what this is about. but all of the reporting suggests he's on a quote, fact-finding mission to figure out how to solve the country's homeless crisis. president trump blamed democratic leaders for the homeless crisis in places like here in los angeles and san francisco and the state of california. the trump administration suggested deregulating the housing but the coalition on homelessness said the trump administration is blaming everyone but themselves and cut funding and not providing affordable housing and asking that trump restore hud funding to pre-1978evels adjusted for inflation. >> i think he made a comment once about the people that are homeless and lazy and not trying hard enough but the system is so hard. it is hard for people to -- for those with mental illness. i'm bipolar. i had so much trauma in my life and he needs to look at the bigger picture of why people are suffering. the city is so -- it is so unequal. it seems like it is heading toward the direction where you have to be rich to live

also huds equal access real must be reinstated as well. i also ask that we preserve the community reinvistment act. a way this committee and other federal agencies can departments can address the homelessness crisis is to strengthen the community investment act. a recent survey found that over $27 billion in 2016 came to low income communities. hud approved an agreement a couple weeks ago that settled the los angeles red lining case against one west bank, that was a case filed by the california coalition for hud. they had over 60 retail bank branches in los angeles and southern california. not one of those was located in a community of color. the cra exam also must be strengthened and consider fair lending law violations. finally we must have a right to counsel to protect tenants. >> thank you very much. you're now recognized for five minutes to present your oral testimony. >> good morning, everyone. good morning. i thank you so much for taking -- listening to my experience. i'm here today to bring some light and statistics you will hear a

the program in which hud provides the housing. if you take traumatize veterans and give housing, it doesn't work. when you combine the things we create a path that many utilize to achieve self-sufficiency. the program is a vital resource that helped more than 150,000 formally homeless veterans move into housing with a voucher since 2008. roughly 77,000 veterans have access to homes right now. last year alone, more than 4000 veterans, many experiencing chronic homelessness, found permanent housing and the critical services. in addition, 50,000 veterans found permanent housing and supportive services for the continuum of homeless programs. these programs have been a success. hud and the va announced an additional $35 million in grant funding to 212 public housing authorities across the country. they work through combining permanent rental assistance with case management and clinical services. it is complemented by va programs that use tools and technology to identify veterans that are most vulnerable and in need of help. as a doctor
