LONG ISLAND HOUSING PARTNERSHIP The United States was founded on the principle that all people are created equal. Accordingly, all people should have the right to fair and equitable treatment in their pursuit of decent, safe and affordable housing. While there were components of the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Rule that were unnecessarily burdensome for communities and actually served to raise the cost to provide housing for those in need, the tenets of that Rule were sound and provided needed protections against discrimination. The statements by the President that such housing raises crime and reduces property values are unfounded and not supported by facts. Over the years, the housing developed by organizations like the Long Island Housing Partnership, Inc. (LIHP) have helped to raise property values in various communities and serve as the impetus for neighborhood and economic revitalization. More importantly, the practices employed, in conformance with the Rule, helped to ensure that all people seeking housing are treated equally regardless of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, disability and source of income as well as other protected classes in the United States, New York State and Local Governments. |
