From @urbaninstitute: With more than 40 million Americans struggling to afford housing costs, most registered voters favor permanently affordable housing. Promising federal policies candidates should consider to address this pressing issue on voters’ minds are highlighted below.

No greater way to celebrate Earth Day than to share EPA’s investment in Solar for All awarding Washington $156,120,000. #climatejustice

Even in this election year, America must not lose focus on affordable housing https://t.co/RuUmTMVtjI

Our nation has serious challenges with housing.

I’m working to secure federal funding to build dozens of new homes – that folks can afford – right here in Sequim.

As we wrap up #HabitatontheHill and travel home, Washington advocates thank the amazing GRA staff @HFHintl the many speakers, Congress & staff for a great week of advocacy!!

[Habitat Voices in Action @HabitatVoices]

On the last day of #HabitatontheHill, Habitat for Humanity affiliates, homeowners, youth leaders and advocates reflect on their meetings with 300 congressional offices, sharing their powerful stories of the meaningful connections they made and the impact of our work.

[Habitat Voices in Action @HabitatVoices]

Habitat is on the Hill! We’re calling on Congress to support policies and programs that would help Habitat affiliates continue to serve their communities and make the #CostOfHome affordable:

🏠 #NeighborhoodHomes Investment Act
🏠 @HUDgov’s HOME and SHOP programs
🏠 @USDA 502

[Habitat Voices in Action @HabitatVoices]

The U.S. has the worst affordability shortage since the 1980s with record high home prices and lowest for-sale homes, pricing out many renters from becoming homebuyers. Thank you Dr. Lautz w/ @nardotrealtor for presenting this data for our first session at #HabitatontheHill 2024.

[Habitat Voices in Action @HabitatVoices]

Through the #CostOfHome campaign, state and local Habitat organizations have supported more than 300 policy successes that increase access to home affordability. At #HabitatontheHill, they share how they helped achieve those wins to enhance our collective advocacy ability.

The #NeighborhoodHomes Investment Act now has more than 20 cosponsors in the House! We thank @RepJoeCourtney, @dinatitus and @RepDavids for their support helping low- and moderate-income homeowners in distressed communities and increasing the affordable housing supply in the U.S.

[Habitat Seattle-King County @habitatskc]

Great to have Sen. @meetjoenguyen at our Highland Terrace site on Wednesday! Loved talking about affordable housing and what more we can do to drive the #CostOfHome down!
