Sixteen states and the District of Columbia filed suit against the Department of Housing and Urban Development on March 16, 2026, challenging guidance issued by HUD in September 2025. The suit was filed in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The plaintiffs, all participants in the Fair Housing Assistance Program through their state civil rights agencies, alleged that HUD's guidance dramatically undermines the federal-state partnership that has existed since 1980. According to the complaint, the guidance threatens to decertify state and local FHAP agencies unless they stop enforcing state and local fair housing protections that exceed federal standards, including protections for sexual orientation, gender identity, language, criminal records, and source of income. The plaintiffs brought eight counts under the Administrative Procedure Act, alleging the guidance exceeds statutory authority, is arbitrary and capricious, and violates constitutional requirements. They sought declaratory and injunctive relief to stay and vacate the challenged policies.

The case was assigned to Judge Vince Chhabria.

This case is ongoing.
