SUMMARY: The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA) 
established the Housing Trust Fund (HTF) to be administered by HUD. 
Pursuant to the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Security and 
Soundness Act of 1992 (the Act), as amended by HERA, eligible HTF 
grantees are the 50 states, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth 
of Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of Northern 
Mariana Islands, and the United States Virgin Islands. This notice 
announces the formula allocation amount for each eligible HTF grantee.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 1131 of HERA, Division A amended the 
Act to add a new section 1337 entitled ``Affordable Housing 
Allocations'' and a new section 1338 entitled ``Housing Trust Fund.'' 
Congress authorized the Housing Trust Fund (HTF) with the stated 
purpose of: (1) Increasing and

preserving the supply of rental housing for extremely low-income 
families with incomes between 0 and 30 percent of area median income 
and very low-income families with incomes between 30 and 50 percent of 
area median income, including homeless families, and (2) increasing 
homeownership for extremely low-income and very low-income families. 
Section 1337 of the Act (12 U.S.C. 4567) requires Federal National 
Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage 
Corporation (Freddie Mac) to set-aside 4.2 basis points (.042 percent) 
of the unpaid principal of their new mortgage purchases annually to 
fund the HTF and the Capital Magnet Fund. Each year, 65% of the amounts 
set-aside by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are then allocated to the HTF.
    Section 1338 of the Act (12 U.S.C. 4568) directs HUD to establish, 
through regulation, the formula for distribution of amounts made 
available for the HTF. The provisions in section 1338(c)(3) of the Act 
(12 U.S.C. 4568(c)(3)) specify the factors to be used for the formula 
and priority for certain factors. The HTF implementing regulations are 
at 24 CFR part 93. The factors and methodology HUD uses to allocate HTF 
funds among eligible grantees are established in the HTF regulation at 
24 CFR 93.50, 93.51, and 93.52.
    The funding announced for Fiscal Year 2022 through this notice is 
$748,948,400.71. Appendix A to this notice provides the HTF allocation 
amount for each grantee.

Jemine Bryon,
Acting General Deputy Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and
