<p class="GPOHtml">Consistent with current Executive Orders and Administration directives related to citizenship, the Rural Housing Service (RHS) intends to publish a proposed rule to establish criteria for compliance with section 214 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1980 within 7 CFR 3560. Section 214 requires that individuals applying to receive federal assistance under certain programs must provide a U.S. citizenship declaration and verification of the individual&rsquo;s citizenship status. Customer experience with the program will be enhanced&nbsp;by codifying processes in the regulation that have been run through funding announcements since the inception of the program.</p>
