Congress can help address the affordability crisis by passing the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, which would reduce barriers to housing production, support zoning reform, and connect housing to jobs, services, and transit.

A floor vote on the Housing for the 21st Century Act could happen as early as next week.

Smart growth provisions must stay in the bill. Tell Congress to support infill, missing middle housing, and smart growth reforms: https://t.co/kc7PoBHMvR

Email your representatives and tell them to support these important reforms: https://t.co/hLBUK3lVUl

We’re encouraged by the introduction of the Build HUBS Act, which would reform RRIF and TIFIA to cut red tape and make it easier to finance transit-oriented development. Learn more: https://t.co/L2dQXcRV8a

Last night, the Senate passed the landmark ROAD to Housing Act.

It includes SGA priorities: resources for better zoning & land use, provisions encouraging pro-housing policies along transit, and streamlined reviews for infill.

Now it’s on to the House.

At SGA, we believe that everyone should have access to a home that supports them at every stage of life.

That means more types of housing, in the right places, at prices people can afford.

Here’s how we’re working to bring that vision to life⤵️

RRIF & TIFIA should be fueling equitable growth near transit, but red tape has slowed both programs down for years.

Our @LOCUSDevelopers coalition says it’s time to unlock transit-oriented developments full potential.

In July, Congress expanded the federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program.

LIHTC can unlock the development of hundreds of thousands of new affordable rental homes nationwide, especially if supported with other funding streams.

🏛️ The Senate’s new tax package could shape the future of community development.

It proposes making LIHTC + NMTC permanent—a big win.

But it misses the mark on urgent needs like affordable housing + inclusive growth.

See the breakdown + what’s next ⤵️

The Opportunity Zone tax incentive could support affordable housing—but Congress must fix it first.

If passed, the legislation would create a tax incentive to build and preserve more than 500,000 affordable homes over ten years in under-resourced communities. Thank you to @MikeKellyPA and @RepJohnLarson for leading this important effort.
