Furthermore, for many Section 8 beneficiaries, subsidies
from the Voucher Program for a stable and renewable one-
year term are the difference between safe, decent housing and
being homeless. A tenant’s inability to pay for an unexpected
increase in his portion of the rent and utilities could result in
eviction, which ultimately would require the public housing
agency to terminate benefits, U.S. Dep’t of Housing & Urban
Dev., Housing Choice Voucher Program Guidebook, at 15-1,
5, and render it impossible for the tenant to pay for a new
unit. This deprivation is especially dire considering the
vulnerability of Section 8 recipients, a large portion of whom
are elderly or disabled, and many of whom, like Plaintiff
Pelaez, have young children.
