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: smartgrowthamerica.org/knowl…

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.

🏛️ 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 ⤵️

Innovative policy and reforms are essential if we want to address the housing supply crisis. We're excited to see what this caucus might accomplish and are ready to support any policy strategy that delivers much-needed housing in well-connected locations.

Tax policy shapes our communities. To build more walkable, mixed-use spaces, we need tax priorities that support smart growth—not sprawl.
