We are thrilled to support the Reducing Regulatory Barriers to Housing Act and applaud U.S. Senator John Fetterman and @RepLBR for their forward-looking and essential work on advocating for pro-housing policies that start to address the root of the crisis. ow.ly/H6ym50S9Say

According to Jenny Schuetz at Brookings Metro, "State and local governments alone can't solve these housing challenges. The federal government has an important role to play." Legislation like RRBHA helps support local govs who want to do the right thing but lack resources.

Rising home prices in places like Nantucket Cnty, MA, and Kaufman Cnty, TX, make it difficult for hospitals and schools to remain fully staffed. Regulatory barriers that make it hard to build drive home prices up, but fed legislation like RRBHA can help! ow.ly/oSBu50S7g32

Housing underproduction is a national crisis and it demands a national solution. RRBHA offers resources and opportunities to help communities who want to engage but don’t know where to start. ow.ly/CvC950S9SBA

Suburban communities account for 48.7% (1.9M) of the housing deficit but new housing construction isn't keeping up. Constrained supply leads to higher prices, and regulatory barriers are a big driver. Good federal policy like RRBHA can help! ow.ly/OfVP50Sb7nW

Regulatory barriers that have built up over decades have left us in a severe housing shortage of ~4M; the fed gov has a role to play in helping communities improve affordability with best practices and research
