Dear Folks,

I wanted to follow up on our Senior Team discussion on ways in which HUD can support the White House/HHS push for education around enrollment of uninsured individuals in health insurance exchanges and expanded Medicaid programs.

The Secretary is committed to engaging as intensively as we can on this initiative. Members of your staff have worked with our office over the last couple of weeks to generate a llst of possible areas in which HUD can engage -- Please review the attached PowerPoint and let me know by noon tomorrow any comments questions that you have about the proposed areas of engagement (Carol, we noted your suggestion about activating an OFA or Americorps-like volunteer base around enrollment, as well as lessons from EITC Sites, and will relay that to the WH.}

Thanks much, Lo pa

Affordable Care Act Rollout

· Outreach, Education and Enrollment

The Affordable Care Act

• On March 23rd, 2010, President Obama signed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act into law. Key Provisions include: - Individual Mandate

- State-level Health Insurance Exchanges

• On June 28, 2012, the Supreme Court upheld the Act, but allowed states to opt out of a provision requiring the expansion of Medicaid to serve individuals under 65 with income below 133 percent of the federal poverty level. - In states that do expand their Medicaid programs, it will represent the

first time in which low-income adults without children will be guaranteed coverage without the need for a waiver.

Potential Impact for HUD Programs and Residents

• Insurance enrollment status of HUD residents is not known

• The Center for Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP) reports that HUD has the potential to save $100 million in rental subsidy costs when elderly and disabled HUD residents enroll in insurance programs like the Medicare Savings Program (MSP) - MSP reduces out-of-pocket costs for Medicare insurance premiums,

deductibles, and copayments.

• CBPP reports that approximately 700,000 assisted households claimed $1.4 billion in such expenses in 2010

- This increased HUD rental subsidy costs by more than $400 million that year.

Geographic and Demographic Targeting

• Top 10 states:

- Texas, Florida, Illinois, Missouri, Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Ohio & Michigan

• Top 8 cities:

- Dallas/Ft. Worth, Houston, Miami, Chicago, Atlanta, Phoenix/Tucson MSA, Philadelphia & Washington, DC

• Priority demographic is "young and healthy"

- "Sick and worried" will require less intensive outreach

- "Passive and unengaged" will be more difficult to reach

ACA Rollout Phases

• Phase 1: Outreach and Education (January-June)

- Agencies conduct outreach to uninsured individuals, specifically the "young and healthy"

- Provide high level me.ssaging/education on health insurance literacy and the value of insurance

• Use of social media, online communication, cell phones

- On January 16th, CMS re-launched its healthcare.gov site as consumer-facing site

• Will help individuals learn about insurance and begin to understand their options.

ACA Rollout Phases

• Phase 2: Training of Application Assisters (starts in June)

- Healthcare.gov will re-launch as the place for enrollment

- Navigators (30-40 hour training) and ~ertified Application Assisters (4-5 hour training) will train to be able to enroll others

- Call Center will launch for people to get more info (24 hours/day; 150 languages)

- Outreach and education continues

• Phase 3: Enrollment {starting October 1st)

Low to Medium Level of Engagement

1. Include messaging in Senior Team talking points

2. Social media amplification via Twitter and Facebook and biogs

3. Provide information and encourage participation in training (as appropriate) via listservs:

Continuums of care - Public housing directors - Multifamily service coordinators - Neighborhood networks coordinators - Multifamily housing owners and management agents

Housing counselors - Public engagement specialized stakeholders

4. Post information on program websites - Neighborhood Networks - Public Housing portal and Resident Newsletter - Homelessness Resource Exchange

Medium Level of Engagement 5. Encourage industry groups and other stakeholders to contact inform their members; offer to provide information at conferences/public events:

Council of Large Public Housing Authorities (CLAPHA) - Public Housing Authorities Directors Association (PHADA) - U.S. lnteragency Council on Homelessness (USICH)

Community Solutions/lOOK Homes Campaign - National Affordable Housing Management Association (NAHMA) - American Association of Service Coordinators (AASC) - New England Resident Service Coordinators (NERSC) - Stewards of Affordable Housing for the Future (SAHF) - Housing Partnership Network (HPN} - Neighborworks (NW) - National Council of State Housing Agencies (NCSHA) - National Alliance to End Homelessness (NAEH)

Corporation for Supportive Housing (CSH}

High Level of Engagement 6. Encourage staff who work with residents to participate in Certified Application Assistance training so that they can provide in-person enrollment assistance starting October 1st:

- Public Housing FSS and ROSS Coordinators - Voucher program FSS Coordinators - Multifamily Service Coordinators - Neighborhood Network Coordinators (MFH) - Homeless service providers (CoC- and ESG-funded) - Participants of With Every Heartbeat is Life (WEHL-PIH} program

7. Incorporate outreach and possibly enrollment into ongoing activities with residents:

- Public housing resident income certification - Section 811 program activities - Continuum of Care centralized or coordinated assessment system - Point-in-Time Counts - Annual eligibility certification process for multifamily housing residents - Father's Day activities (June 1gth)

- With Every Heartbeat is Life (WEHL-PIH) health programming

Case Number: 20 13HQOOI744I

-and DS JONES violated HUD's interna l policy, Restrictions on Lobbying by Federa l Employees (Exhibit E), by sending an e-mail, asking recipients to contact senators on pending legislation. SZUBROWSKI, YOUNGBERG, HARWITZ and MINCBERG violated HUD's internal policy, Restrictions on Lobbying by Federal Employees, by preparing for distribution an e-mail asking recipients to contact senators on pending legislation.

- ·sand DS JON ES' nctions did not appear to violate the Anti-Lobbying Act provis ions rclnting to grass roots lobbying activities, nor did the actions of SZUBROWSKI, YOUNGBERG, HARWITZ or MINCBERG. While the e-mai l was a grass roots lobbying communication. the Anti-Lobbying Act's prohibition relates to ··substantive" grass roots lobbying ac tivity. The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has opined that to be •·substantive" the activity must cost in excess o l' $50,000. Although HUD­OIG did not calculate the cost, it appears to fall short of the $50,000 threshold .

DS JONES ~ars to have committed a Prohibited Personnel Practice (PPP) by directing and authorizing- to dispatch the July 3 1, 2013, and August 5, 2013, e-mail communications on his behalf that also went to 46 HUD employees. This appears to violate 5 U.S.C. §2302(b)(3), which prohibits an official from coercing any person's political activities. This matter has been referred to the Office of Special Counsel (OSC).

The investigation also cletenninecl that MINCBERG committed violations of HUD's adminjstrative polic/ when he advised HUD personnel (coworkers and subordinates), who were involved in compiling the e-mail recipient list, preparing the e-mail, and disseminating the e-mail to - and DS JONES, that he had coordinated with HUD's Office of General Counsel (OGC) and that HUD­OGC did not raise objections or have a problem with the dissemination of the e-mail as long as thee­mail ''came from" the DS, a PAS official, and not pursuant to " instructions from" the DS.

MrNCBERG also took steps to interfere with the HUD-OlG investigation by interrupting and inserting himself into an ongoing witness interv iew, threatening to terminate the interview and not allow the witness to provide documentation as requested by investigators. MINCBERG also attempted to obstruct HUD-OIG's investigation when he contacted HUD-OGC employees, before their interviews by investigators, to discuss anti-lobbying and their recollection of events.

MINCBERG also threatened the investigating agents that he (MINCBERG) would ensure that the agents were charged as a result of their inappropriate actions. MINCBERG did not identify those actions to investigators.

MINCBERG was less than forthcoming in regard to his invo lvement in the preparation and dissemination of the July 31 e-mail communication, his knowledge of the Anti-Lobbying Act and his

l HUD Handbook 0752.02 REV-3 , Appendix I, HUD Table of Offenses and Penalties, section 13 (Deliberate misrepresentation, falsification, exaggeration, concealment or withholding of material fact) and section 34 (Standards of conduct violations not listed elsewhere in the Table ofOffenses and Penalties)

knowledge ofHUD's internal policy governing the restrictions on lobbying by Fedeml employees.

Finally, the investigation disclosed that CONSTANTINE violated HUD's administmtive policy2 by failing to clarify the specifics of the action discussed between him and MINCBERG before the dispatch of the e-mail communication and withheld information pertinent to the investigation when questioned during multiple interviews with HUD-OIG investigators.

During the course of our investigation, we conducted 20 interviews and reviewed both current and historical HUD policies on anti-lobbying. We also obtained and reviewed relevant documents maintained by HUD, including e-mail communications.

The facts of this investigation were reviewed with DOJ's Public Integrity Section, Criminal Division. On November 25, 2013, DOJ declined to open a criminal investigation into this matter. DOJ deferred to HUD-OIG to refer the matter to HUD for any administmtive action it deemed appropriate.

Additionally, we have forwarded our report of investigation to GAO for its determination with respect to potential appropriations law violations. We also forwarded the report of investigation to the Office of Special Counsel for its determination with respect to potential violations of Prohibited Personnel Pmctices.

HUD's Policy on Restrictions on Lobbying by Federal Employees

At the time the July 31 and August 5, 2013, e-mails were dmfted and sent, HUD's policy with regard to Restrictions on Lobbying by Fedeml Employees, dated July 6, 2011, prohibited any HUD employee (including PAS officials) from encouraging anyone to contact Congress in support of or in opposition to pending legislation.

This policy, approved by HUD's Geneml Counsel and published on HUD-OGC's internal Web page, stated:

2 HUD Handbook 0752.02, REV-3, Appendix I, HUD Table of Offenses and Penalties, section 13 (Delibemte misrepresentation, falsification, exaggemtion, concealment or withholding of material fact) and section 34 (Standards of conduct violations not listed elsewhere in the Table of Offenses and Penalties)
