In 1974, Congress created the Section 8 housing
program “[f]or the purpose of aiding low-income families in
obtaining a decent place to live.” 42 U.S.C. § 1437f(a);
Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, Pub. L.
No. 93-383, § 201(a), 88 Stat. 633, 662–66 (1974) (amending
the United States Housing Act of 1937) (codified as amended
at 42 U.S.C. § 1437f). The program, which is funded by the
Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) and
administered by local public housing agencies (“PHAs”), 24
C.F.R. § 982.1(a)(1), generally provides two different types of
rental assistance: “project-based” subsidies and “tenant-based”
subsidies. Id. § 982.1(b)(1).
