Liberty City Rising Act of 2023

Liberty City Rising Act of 2023 This bill requires the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to establish standards to ensure the safety and security of federally assisted housing in high-crime areas. Public housing agencies serving high-crime areas must also establish anonymous hotlines for tenants to report suspicious activity and crimes in the community. In addition, HUD must prioritize public housing projects located in high-crime areas when awarding certain public housing grants for safety and security measures. Under the bill, a high-crime area is designated by HUD based on the most recent violent crime data available.
