Secretary Ben Carson is changing the Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) mission statement and omitting words that would ensure the organization remains inclusive and discrimination free. Carson tweaked the mission statement of the agency to read: “HUD’s mission is to ensure Americans have access to fair, affordable housing and opportunities to achieve self-sufficiency, thereby strengthening our communities and nation.” Previously, the mission statement, read: “ HUD’s mission is to create strong, sustainable, inclusive communities and quality affordable homes for all.
