We disagree with Defendants’ reading of § 1437f(t). First, if Congress’s intent in amending the statute in 2000 had been merely to provide that the Secretary was *1157obligated to supply families with enhanced vouchers while they remained in their existing units, the amendment making explicit the tenant’s right to remain would have been unnecessary. Second, there is a separate statutory provision that already required the Secretary to provide enhanced vouchers to eligible families. See 42 U.S.C. § 1487f note, MAHRAA § 524(d).
