Even if this is a net good, just on principle I want to dig my heels in. "The intrusive questionnaire that local officials applying for HUD funding have to fill out under AFFH asks them to identify any local opposition to low income housing projects. These filings could then be used to hold federal funds hostage, or perhaps to file suits against localities like the one the feds have pressed against Westchester. In other words, AFFH comes close to institutionalizing the idea that local government officials must treat their own constituents as a kind of illegitimate opposition to be overcome."
