Episode 12: Breaking Down the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act
Congress has passed the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, one of the most significant bipartisan housing bills in years.
Unlike many housing bills, this one isn't primarily about increasing funding. Instead, it focuses on changing the rules that shape how housing gets built, from environmental reviews and Community Development Block Grants to manufactured housing, single-stair apartment buildings, and institutional investors.
In our newest episode, we break down what made it into the final bill and what these reforms could mean for affordable housing, developers, local governments, and communities across the country.
If you've been hearing about the bill but haven't had time to read all 300+ pages, this episode is for you.
