New Jersey’s Attorney General on Tuesday has filed requests with the Trump administration to disclose information that backs up claims made by the president about affordable housing.
Gurbir S. Grewal, the state’s top legal officer, made a pair of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests with the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), demanding them to turn over any information that supports President Donald Trump’s claim that affordable housing under the Obama-era’s Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) regulation in communities leads to increased crime.
