Tell Congress: Support Housing Affordability, Expand Our Country's Housing Supply
The bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act, or Renewing Opportunity in the American Dream to Housing Act (S.2651), has advanced from the Senate Banking Committee by an overwhelming vote of 24-0. It is a comprehensive bill introduced by Senators Tim Scott (R-SC) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) that tackles the housing crisis affecting millions of Americans through housing solutions that:
- Simplify rental assistance
- Support first-time homebuyers
- Enable zoning updates
- Expand housing supply
- Streamline assistance for our neighbors experiencing homelessness
The bill's bipartisan support shows rare congressional unity on addressing America's housing shortage. Your Members of Congress and their colleagues have a chance to make life better for the communities in your state and for people across the country!
Will you email your Members of Congress today and urge their full support for the ROAD to Housing Act? Sen. Scott filed S.2651 as an amendment to a must-pass bill which passed out of the Senate and is now in conference with the House. A final vote is likely to happen before the end of December.
This may be the last chance to pass this impactful housing legislation this year. Without congressional action now, millions of Americans will continue facing impossible housing costs and limited housing supply.
