AI Summary

This bill, the Accountability for NYCHA Act of 2023, requires the Inspector General of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to investigate the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA). The investigation will examine NYCHA's compliance with a 2019 agreement between NYCHA, HUD, and the City of New York, review the oversight of the court-appointed Monitor, survey the physical conditions of NYCHA housing, and identify any waste, fraud, or violations of federal law. Within 180 days, the Inspector General must provide a report to Congress detailing the findings, a summary of actions HUD may take to address NYCHA's deficiencies, and any other recommendations. The bill aims to provide additional oversight and compel NYCHA to remedy the "appalling conditions" that led to the agency being declared in substantial default of federal housing law.
