“It's time to go home,’’ Fudge told USA TODAY in an exclusive interview. “I do believe strongly that I have done just about everything I could do at HUD for this administration as we go into this crazy, silly season of an election.”
Fudge has served as a Cabinet secretary for three years, steering the federal agency through housing crises in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. She is the second Black woman to head the agency.
