Washington, DC- (Wednesday, May 9, 2012)–Congresswoman Johnson released the following statement:

“I’m very pleased that the North Texas Fair Housing Center will receive $261,589 in a Fair Housing Organization Initiative (FHOI) grant, awarded by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). This grant will help ensure that our fair housing laws are adequately enforced. Without enforcement, families across Texas could be left stranded without access to equal housing opportunities. The FHOI grant will bolster our ability to enforce important laws, and effectively expand access to housing in underserved areas throughout District 30.”
