US EditionRep. Susie Lee Pushes Housing Overhaul Benefiting Nevada
The act passed 390-9 aims to ease lending, reform zoning, and reduce manufactured-home costs as record-high cost-burdened households drive reform urgency, experts say.
- This week, the House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed the Housing for the 21st Century Act, and the U.S. Senate is expected to vote soon on a similar measure.
- A recent survey found nine in 10 Americans say the nation is in a cost-of-living crisis, and Harvard's Joint Center for Housing Studies reported record-high cost-burdened households this month.
- The bill would loosen local zoning laws, lower manufactured homes costs, and ease office-to-apartment conversions, Shea said, `Since the Great Recession, I think it will be the most consequential housing package`.
- The effort responds to worsening financial pressures facing millions of Americans, while Congress debates the measure, President Trump advances housing plans and Federal Reserve nominee Kevin Warsh.
- If enacted, the measures could expand community bank lending and increase housing supply through zoning reform and office-to-residential conversions, but experts caution benefits would accrue over time rather than immediately.
