Everyone deserves equal access to safe and affordable housing.
This #FairHousingMonth and every month, we’re working to expand opportunities for homeowners and renters, fight housing discrimination, and lower housing costs.
Churches, synagogues, and other religious orgs want to put their faith into action by developing housing on land they already own.
Sherrod Brown's YIGBY Act will help them cut through red tape to lower housing costs and expand options for families.

Dr. Borzekowski’s years of experience has prepared him to lead OFR as it guards against risk to our financial system.
High interest rates aren’t bringing down prices. They’re making housing more expensive, and hurting small businesses and workers, all while allowing corporate price-gouging to continue.

Medical debt can hit anyone, at any time, without warning.

As we close #BlackHistoryMonth , we remember Dr. William Spriggs, a brilliant economist and public servant.
From teaching at Howard University to serving at U.S. Department of Labor to testifying in front of our Committee, Dr. Spriggs brought the lens of the Dignity of Work to everything he did.
If you get scammed on Zelle, it’s not easy to report the theft and there's NO guarantee you'll ever get your money back.
