Federal money meant to help keep Texans in their homes is slipping away. Tuesday morning, Montgomery County Commissioners Court had to vote to take back $3.3 million in federal funds it had previously designated for nonprofits to distribute to landlords and renters thrown into financial straits by the pandemic. That was on top of the $7.1 million from the rent relief fund it had already given back.
