I just spoke with Congressmen Patrick McHenry's (R-NC, 10th district) Legislative Director. She informed me that the La Raza funding bill ($25 million) H.R. 1999 has been absorbed into H.R. 4051 "the Housing Assistance and Authorization Act; A BILL to authorize appropriations for assistance for the National Urban League, the Raza Development Fund, the Housing Partnership Network, and the National Community Renaissance Program, and for other purposes."

This bill is being marked up in the House Financial Services Committe tonight! Then it will be voted on tomorrow in the a.m. If passed, it will move to the House for scheduling. She said it is expected to pass through Committee and be brought to the House floor.

The Committe will be debating H.R. 4051 at approx. 6:15 pm this evening, Wedesday, November 7. You can catch the action live here:
