On March 11, Housing and Urban Development Secretary Marcia L. Fudge announced her resignation and will transition to life as a private citizen. Her statement highlighted her five decades of public service, including as a mayor, congressional staffer, congresswoman, and Secretary. According to Secretary Fudge, during her tenure, HUD has helped more than two million families avoid foreclosure; removed barriers for those with student loans buy a home with an FHA mortgage; and strengthened the number of Black and Hispanic borrowers based on the percentage of volume, among other accomplishments. According to the White House’s brief, Fudge provided HUD with the largest investment in affordable housing in U.S. history. Secretary Fudge’s resignation will go into effect on March 22, and Deputy Secretary Adrianne Todman will succeed her as Acting Secretary.
