S. 2818 · 114th Congress
Title X Amendments Act of 2016
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 114th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Title X Amendments Act of 2016
This bill reauthorizes the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 and revises the purpose for grants for lead-based paint hazard reduction in target housing.
Such grants shall be made instead for reduction of lead-based paint hazards and correction of other housing-related hazards, including any condition of residential real property that poses a risk of biological, physical, radiological, or chemical exposure that can adversely affect human health.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development may establish a process by which, in order to verify a family's income level, a grantee may first obtain and use income and program participation information from an entity administering:
- the HOME Investment Partnerships program under the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act;
- the special supplemental nutrition program for women, infants, and children established under the Child Nutrition Act of 1966;
- reduced price or free lunches under the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act;
- the weatherization assistance program for low-income persons established under the Energy Conservation and Production Act;
- the temporary assistance for needy families program under part A of title IV of the Social Security Act (SSAct);
- the supplemental security income program under SSAct title XVI; or
- any other program consistent with the family income requirements of the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992.
An Indian tribe and a private nonprofit organization shall be eligible to apply for such a grant, in addition to certain state or local governments, for specified activities relating to lead-based paint hazards.
A private nonprofit organization shall also be eligible to apply for a grant to reduce housing-related health hazards.
The bill revises grantee selection criteria for a grant to carry out activities relating to lead-based paint hazards, and prescribes criteria for activities relating to housing-related hazards.
The bill also prescribes an allocation of funds for grants to assess and correct housing-related health hazards and evaluate the effectiveness of such assessments and corrections.
