42 U.S.C. § 1437f(t)(1)(B) (emphasis added). The Secretary
has interpreted the italicized language as giving eligible ten-
ants a “right to remain,” enforceable against owners who
would seek to evict them, so long as the tenants pay their por-
tion of the rent as defined in Section 8. Every federal court to
consider the question to date has agreed with the Secretary’s
construction of 42 U.S.C. § 1437f(t)(1)(B). See Feemster v.
BSA Ltd. P’ship, 548 F.3d 1063 (D.C. Cir. 2008), aff’g in rel-
evant part, 471 F. Supp. 2d 87 (D.D.C. 2007); Barrientos v.
