The bill would require the Department of Housing and Urban Development to create a competitive grant program for Indian Tribes and Tribally designated housing entities. Grants could help build homes on Tribal land with at least one sustainable feature, or add a feature to an existing home. Examples include solar panels, insulation, heat pumps, and energy-efficient appliances. The bill also sets application and reporting requirements.
Tribes and Tribally designated housing entities could apply for grants. Homes built or improved with grant funds could be rented only to members of the Tribe or Tribes served by the housing entity. The bill does not describe a direct application process for individuals seeking a home.
The bill would authorize $150 million for each fiscal year starting in 2025. This is an authorization of funding, not a statement that the money has been appropriated.
