This Clearinghouse record deals with the federal defendant component of this complex public housing desegregation case. Filed in 1966, this part of the case ended in 1997--but the consolidated lawsuit against the Chicago Housing Authority is still ongoing as of 2022. In combination, the consolidated litigation is one of the most significant housing desegregation cases ever, leading to the nation's first desegregative housing mobility voucher program.

In collaboration with BPI, the organization that represented the plaintiffs in this case, the Clearinghouse has acquired and posted the full litigation record -- over 2100 documents, all told. A handful "core" documents are set to display here; if you click on "show more" you'll see several dozen more. Hundreds more are displayed in the record for the companion case. The rest are archived in a google folder.


On August 9, 1966, six Black tenants of Chicago public housing projects filed a class-action complaint against the Housing Assistance Administration, an agency within the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). This case was filed the same day as Gautreaux v. Chicago Housing Authority, in which the same plaintiffs alleged that the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA) built public housing projects only in predominantly Black neighborhoods, resulting in further entrenchment of Chicago’s segregated housing pattern. The plaintiffs alleged that this practice discriminated against them in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment by physically isolating Black Chicagoans and inhibiting their access to social benefits–such as education–that were enjoyed by white Chicagoans. They also alleged discriminatory waiting list/leasing practices. In this case against HUD, the plaintiffs sought to also hold the federal government liable because HUD provided the CHA with funding for construction of housing. The plaintiffs alleged that the Department violated the Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause (which guarantees equal protection in federal government practices), as well as the Civil Rights Act of 1964, by funding CHA’s racially discriminatory housing program. 

The plaintiffs sought to certify a class of approximately 43,000 Black Chicagoans who lived in or had applied to Chicago public housing. They wanted to enjoin the Department from making future federal funding available to the CHA that would be used to support racially discriminatory housing practices. When the case was filed, lead counsel Alex Polikoff appeared as a cooperating attorney for the ACLU--he soon joined Chicago's BPI (Business and Professional People for the Public Interest), which has provided plaintiffs' class representation to the present. 

The case against HUD was stayed on June 16, 1967. Judge Austin determined that the HUD and CHA cases raised identical issues and decided to litigate those issues in the case against the CHA without duplicating efforts in this case.

After CHA lost on summary judgment, and a judgment order against it was entered in 1969, the stay was lifted in 1970. HUD promptly filed a motion to dismiss. Judge Austin granted HUD’s motion on September 1, 1970. But the Seventh Circuit reversed this decision on September 10, 1971. 448 F.2d 731. The Court held that the equitable relief from the federal government might differ from the injunctive relief secured against CHA, and that the cases were meaningfully different. Therefore, adjudication of the case against the CHA did not moot the case against HUD. As to the merits, the Seventh Circuit held that HUD had violated the Fifth Amendment's Due Process Clause. HUD's Secretary could be held liable for these violations because he played a significant role in the construction of Chicago public housing, the system which resulted from the federal funds was racially discriminatory, and the Secretary was aware of the racially discriminatory practices. The Seventh Circuit remanded the HUD case back to the district court to determine the appropriate equitable relief, but cautioned the district court against excessive interference with federal programs–the Seventh Circuit noted that a “simple ‘best efforts’ clause” might be sufficient to remedy the wrongs. 

On November 11, 1971, the district court enjoined HUD from providing approximately $26,000,000 to the City of Chicago as part of the Model Cities Program, unless the City certified with the district court that 700 units had been identified and processed in a non-discriminatory manner. After the two cases were officially consolidated on November 26, 1971, the Seventh Circuit reversed this decision on March 8, 1972. 457 F.2d 124. The Seventh Circuit found that the Model Cities Program–which authorizes the HUD  Secretary to provide federal funds to cities to benefit low-income people–was not tainted by the racially discriminatory practices exhibited by the City of Chicago. Although part of its funds went toward housing, the Model Cities Program was also intended to subsidize other social and educational programs for low-income families. Therefore, although the district court’s efforts to force the City of Chicago to create additional housing in predominantly-white areas was “laudable,” the Seventh Circuit held that it was an abuse of discretion because the district court failed to consider the interest of other poor people who would be harmed by the withholding of these federal funds. The Seventh Circuit remanded the case back to the district court. The plaintiffs asked for a rehearing en banc, but this request was denied.

Because the two cases were consolidated, all ensuing litigation is documented in the companion Clearinghouse entry, for Gautreaux v. Chicago Housing Authority.

That includes the momentous Supreme Court case, which Hills v. Gautreaux, 425 U.S. 284 (1976), in which the Supreme Court found that HUD, unlike the suburban schools in Milliken v. Bradley, 418 U.S. 717 (1974) (the Detroit school desegregation case), had violated the Constitution and therefore a region-wide equitable remedy could be imposed against the federal agency. 

In the consolidated action, in May 1997, HUD moved to terminate the consent decree that applied to it, because the decree's primary goal had been met: 7,100 public housing units had been created in predominantly-white areas. On August 26, 1997, Judge Aspen agreed that HUD’s obligations under the consent decree had ended.

The CHA part of the consolidated case, however, remains ongoing as of June 2022. (Again, see Gautreaux v. Chicago Housing Authority for post-1972 litigation.)
