Brown Thanks Secretary Fudge for Her Leadership

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH), Chairman of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, issued the following statement after Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Marcia Fudge announced her departure.

“As a proud daughter of Ohio, and my Congresswoman for twelve years, Marcia Fudge served Ohioans and families all around the country for decades. She understood that housing is at the center of people’s lives, and she led HUD through a critical period – responding to unprecedented housing challenges during the pandemic, reducing costs for first-time homebuyers, and fighting housing discrimination,” said Brown. “Secretary Fudge, congratulations and thank you for your service to Ohio and to the country.”
