Housing Secretary Ben Carson Could Junk Obama’s Neighborhood Diversity Regulation

Liberals say Donald Trump’s choice to head the nation’s housing agency could scrap a recent regulation that subordinates housing rules in Americans’ suburbs and small towns to the political preferences of political leaders in the nation’s Democratic-run cities.

Trump picked Dr. Ben Carson to run the Department of Housing and Urban Development, which means that Carson will inherit Obama’s new “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing” (AFFH) program.

The program allows federal officials to grant or withhold federal housing dollars to local zoning boards, depending on their willingness to comply with federal race and diversity demands.

Every single one of Obama's regulations and initiatives need to be done away with. Obama's "legacy" is a road map of one failure after another. Obama is an example of someone who has never contributed one positive thing to society. The country has gone to hell under him. Highest murder rates in over 40 years, lowest home ownership rates in decades, less people ever working just to name a few. He's a typical democrat. Bad people who lie and make quick fixes that never work and who pander to the most ignorant of the country. If every single democrat were to suddenly disappear the world would immediately become a better place.
