No, this applies to groups that register voters and then apply for housing funds. Unusally non-profits such as churches or in some places tenant's rights groups. If a Habitat for Humanity chapter helped with a voter registration drive -- even if it were nonpartisan -- it would be ineligible for housing funds.

This will disproportionately affect organizatiions that offer a lot of services to the poor.
