Dear Chairman Frelinghuysen, Ranking Member Lowey, Chairman Aderholt and Ranking Member Bishop:
We, the undersigned 373 organizations and 657 individuals, write to express our support for U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Housing programs, and our support to funding levels included in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 House (H.R. 5054) and Senate (S. 2956) Agriculture Appropriations bills for FY 2018. We respectfully request full funding for USDA Rural Housing Programs in FY 2018.
USDA Rural Development Rural Housing Service (RHS) programs provide essential support, technical assistance and financial assistance helping rural Americans purchase or rehabilitate their own homes, or access safe and affordable rental housing. The funding levels in the FY 2017 House and Senate Agriculture Appropriations bills will allow RHS and nonprofit organizations that it works with to continue to improve rural housing conditions for families in America’ssmall towns.
Under the Section 523 Mutual Self-Help Housing program, small groups of 6 to 12 families come together on nights and weekends to build their own homes, under the supervision and with technical assistance from non-profit self-help grantee organizations. In doing so, Self-Help Housing families can reduce construction costs, earn equity in their homes, and build lasting communities. This is exactly the type of program that that Congress and the Administration should champion: Self-Help Housing encourages self-reliance and hard work, helps families build wealth, stimulates local economies, and is in high demand with over 50,000 families currently on wait lists for the program. In fact, in 2015 the program celebrated its 50th Anniversary and the 50,000th family completed construction of their Self-Help home.Recognizing this success, the H.R. 5054 included an appropriation of $30 million for Mutual and Self Help Housing grants. We support this funding level for FY 2018.
The Section 502 Direct Loan program is exclusively targeted to rural families earning less than 80 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI), and by law, 40 percent of all program funds must be used to help families earning less than 50 percent of AMI. It is one of the most cost-effective

federal housing programs. Each loan costs the federal government $9,000 on average over the entire lifetime of the loan—or just $272 a year. Other federal housing programs cost as much annually. In FY 2016, RHS provided over 7,000 loans totaling over $900 million, and the demand for this program continues to grow. We recommend a program level of $1 billion for the Section 502 Direct Loan program as provided in H.R. 5054.
USDA’s Rural Housing programs also provide much-needed access to affordable rental housing. Today, approximately 416,000 rural seniors, people with disabilities, and low-income families— earning just $13,600 each year on average—live in rental housing financed with USDA Section 515 Rural Rental Housing Loans. We support funding Section 515 at $40 million for FY 2018, as included in S. 2956.
S. 2956 also included several other notable changes to the Section 515 program that are designed to develop solutions to address the issues created by maturing 515 mortgages. The provisions direct the Secretary to implement provisions and provide incentives to facilitate the transfer of USDA multifamily properties to nonprofit organization and public housing authorities. The Senate bill further recommends a new pilot program for grants to qualified non-profit organizations and public housing authorities to provide technical assistance to USDA multifamily housing borrowers to facilitate the acquisition of RHS multifamily properties by non-profit housing organizations and public housing authorities. We support these provisions for FY 2018.
USDA’s Section 514/516 Farm Labor Housing program provides critical low-cost loans and grants to help build, improve, and preserve affordable housing for America’s farmworkers, who suffer from extremely high levels of poverty and who frequently live in substandard, crowded conditions. We support funding for the Farm Labor Housing programs at $8.4 million for Section 516 grants and $23.8 million for Section 514 loans for FY 2018.
USDA’s Water and Wastewater programs also provide critical resources to rural communities with severely limited access to a clean and affordable water supply. Communities along the U.S./Mexico border, on Native American lands, and in the Appalachian region are at an especially high risk of water insecurity, as are communities with a high number of farm workers. Without access to USDA’s Water and Wastewater loans and grants, rural communities are often unable to meet the basic health and development needs of its residents. We recommend $546 million for water-waste water loans and grants, as included in S. 2956.
Your efforts to maintain full funding for these programs are more important than ever. Each year, the Appropriations Committee has demonstrated its commitment to rural communities by supporting funding for USDA Rural Housing programs. We encourage you do to the same in the FY 2018 Agriculture Appropriations bill.
Sincerely,
NATIONAL RURAL HOUSING COALITION
