Bass Public Affairs Congratulates Andrew Hughes on His Nomination as HUD Deputy Secretary

WASHINGTON — Bass Public Affairs congratulates Andrew Hughes on his recent nomination by President Donald Trump, as Deputy Secretary of U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Hughes brings extensive experience and a deep commitment to expanding housing opportunities and strengthening communities across the nation.

While working under former Secretary of HUD, Ben Carson, Deana Bass Williams, a founding partner of Bass Public Affairs, had the opportunity to work closely with Hughes.  Bass Williams said, “I can think of no one better qualified than Andrew Hughes to serve as Deputy Secretary of HUD. For the decade that I have known him, I’ve always been impressed by his leadership, integrity and dedication to service. Andrew understands the importance of public-private partnerships in tackling America’s housing challenges. And for what it’s worth, not only is he smart and capable, he is truly a good man and a leader with a servant's heart.”  

As the nation is seeking solutions for more affordable housing and economic development, Hughes’ appointment comes at a crucial time.  Understanding how to get things done after having worked at HUD under Dr. Ben Carson, Hughes is well-positioned for this role in assisting Secretary Turner in advancing HUD’s mission.

BPA looks forward to supporting Andrew Hughes and Secretary Scott Turner in their efforts to create sustainable housing solutions and drive positive change for America’s most vulnerable citizens.
