Bill text here | Section-by-section analysis here
Washington, D.C. – Today, ahead of the markup on the landmark bipartisan housing legislation in the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, cross-industry stakeholders and local elected officials are voicing their support for the bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act:
Local Elected Officials
Allentown Mayor Matt Tuerk
“Almost 60% of the homes in Allentown are over 65 years old, but they’re not ready for retirement. While these homes are affordable to many, they also need some real investment to keep them safe and affordable for future generations of American families. The Whole-Home Repairs Act is a smart investment in American cities that will help us tackle the housing crisis. I’m glad to see the Senate Banking Committee include this and other critical bills in a bipartisan housing package, and urge Congress to pass this bill into law.”
Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller
“Communities across the country have been crippled by an unprecedented housing crisis. Lack of affordable housing goes beyond finding a place to call home, it strains pocketbooks and impacts affordability and quality of life. The City of Albuquerque is taking bold steps to meet the moment by building more affordable housing and encouraging development,” said Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller. “But we can’t do it alone. We rely on strong partnerships at every level. This package is a transformative step forward, and we’re encouraged by the showing of bipartisan support from our federal partners in tackling this challenge.”
Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens
“Atlanta is building a future where housing is a right, not a privilege. Through innovative approaches like adaptive reuse and office-to-residential conversions, we’re showing how cities can creatively reimagine space to meet urgent housing needs. That’s why I’m proud to co-chair the National Housing Crisis Task Force, which is working to scale local solutions nationwide. But we need federal partnership to match our ambition. The ROAD to Housing Act is a bipartisan effort to help cities address the housing crisis because every American deserves a safe, affordable place to call home. This bill is an important first step that responsibly removes regulatory red tape slowing affordable housing development while enacting critical reforms to homelessness programs across the country.”
Chattanooga Mayor Tim Kelly
“Chattanooga has recognized the urgency of this crisis and fostered locally based solutions. We hope Congress can pass supportive policies that can be scaled and replicated nationally.”
Cleveland Mayor Justin M. Bibb
"Cleveland is showing that local action can lead the way on housing — building smarter, faster, and with deep respect for our residents and neighborhoods. But cities can’t do it alone. The Senate’s ROAD to Housing Act marks a critical and much-needed step forward, delivering federal support that will bolster cities' efforts to meet the scale of the crisis. I urge Congress to continue pushing for bold, bipartisan solutions that make housing affordable and accessible for every American."
Kansas City, MO Mayor Quinton Lucas
“The ROAD to Housing Act represents a step forward in addressing America’s housing crisis, and I applaud Congress for elevating this as a national priority. With federal support, local leaders can build a stronger foundation and scale successful local housing solutions like the work of Kansas City’s Housing Trust Fund. To date, the trust fund has helped create and preserve thousands of affordable homes, investing nearly $75 million to support seniors, veterans, families, and essential workers.”
Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego
“Phoenix has shown what’s possible when cities lead with urgency and innovation, delivering over 50,000 housing units five years ahead of schedule, expanding affordable options, and creating real pathways to homeownership. These milestones reflect our commitment to housing equity and economic resilience. The ROAD to Housing Act includes promising tools that could help cities like ours go even further, and I encourage continued bipartisan action on this front at the federal level.”
Scranton Mayor Paige Cognetti
“Combatting the housing crisis takes all of us, across sectors and levels of government, and certainly across party lines. Senators Warren and Scott are presenting comprehensive solutions that will help reduce costs in cities like Scranton.”
Mayors' support organized in partnership with Accelerator for America and the National Housing Crisis Task Force
National League of Cities, Irma Esparza Diggs, Senior Executive
“On behalf of the National League of Cities (NLC) and the more than 19,000 cities, towns, and villages we represent, we write to thank you for your bipartisan leadership in advancing the ROAD to Housing Act of 2025. For the first time in more than a decade, we are seeing a strong, collaborative effort from this committee to address the housing affordability crisis through pragmatic, locally informed policy solutions, and your partnership in this moment is both timely and deeply appreciated. NLC supports the overall objectives of the bill, which reflect many of the longstanding policy priorities sought by local governments: expanding housing supply, improving housing access and affordability, and preserving local flexibility.”
US Conference of Mayors
The US Conference of Mayors sent a letter ahead of the markup outlining their position on the legislation and calling it “a landmark piece of legislation that addresses the urgent need to make substantial movement on the national housing crisis.”
Organizations
Accelerator for America, Mary Ellen Wiederwohl, President and CEO
"Accelerator for America works with mayors and local leaders from across the country who are leading the way on housing by setting ambitious goals and enacting innovative local solutions that drive housing production and affordability for their communities. But to truly meet the scale of the housing crisis, we need federal partnership that matches that ambition. The ROAD to Housing Act gives us a bipartisan blueprint that can further empower local leaders to do more of what works by streamlining regulations, supporting land use reform, incentivizing local innovation, encouraging infill and modular housing, and expanding home ownership opportunities." - Mary Ellen Wiederwohl, President and CEO of Accelerator for America."
American Planning Association, Sue Schwartz, FAICP, President
“Planning for housing supply and affordability is essential to tackling the nation’s housing crisis. The American Planning Association applauds the Chairman Scott, Ranking Member Warren, and the Senate Banking Committee for coming together across party lines to advance practical and meaningful housing solutions. The ROAD to Housing Act is a landmark bill that will help planners provide critical insights and locally led reforms needed to unlock housing opportunity in communities across the nation. Together, we can plan and deliver the housing options that communities need for all people to thrive. The ROAD to Housing will speed and support this essential work by providing critical support, incentives, and models. APA looks forward to working with congressional leaders on this vital package of housing reforms.”
American Flood Coalition Action, Matt Rowland, Policy Director
“The Community Development Block Grant–Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) program is a lifeline for communities in long-term recovery after disasters. However, the program currently must be authorized one disaster at a time, resulting in inefficiencies and slowdowns at the very moment when communities need support to rebuild. American Flood Coalition Action applauds Senate Banking Chairman Tim Scott and Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren for including text in this bipartisan legislation to permanently authorize the CDBG-DR program, which would create a consistent, reliable structure to deploy funds without delay after hurricanes, floods, wildfires, and other hazards. Permanent authorization of CDBG-DR will help communities recover faster, stronger, and smarter.”
American Land Title Association, Chris Morton, CEO
“The American Land Title Association (ALTA) applauds the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs for its bipartisan leadership in advancing this critical housing legislation. The title industry has a longstanding history of safeguarding property rights and ensuring the integrity of real estate transactions and appreciates the leadership of Chairman Tim Scott (R-S.C.) and Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) in making housing a priority with advancement of the ROAD to Housing Act of 2025. "We welcome the opportunity to work with lawmakers and stakeholders to help advance the goals of this bipartisan housing bill. By addressing supply issues and expanding access to homeownership opportunities, this legislation supports the foundational American dream of homeownership.”
Bipartisan Policy Center, Ron Terwilliger, Founder, Terwilliger Center for Housing Policy
“America’s housing crisis has been silent for too long, but it’s silent no more—and the Senate has heard the voices of so many Americans struggling with high housing costs loud and clear. The growing challenges of housing affordability and lack of adequate supply demand action, and it’s heartening to see senators from both sides of the aisle respond with meaningful solutions. Many of the bills in this package closely align with the priorities we have identified in our American Housing Act of 2025, showing that Congress can find common ground on an issue that impacts so many. I applaud Chairman Tim Scott, Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren, and the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee for advancing policies that will help address our nation’s housing shortage and improve affordability.”
Bipartisan Policy Center Action, Michele Stockwell, President
“BPC Action strongly supports the ROAD to Housing Act of 2025 and thanks Chairman Tim Scott (R-SC) and Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) for their bipartisan leadership. This bill aligns closely with our American Housing Act, prioritizing the urgent need to expand and preserve the nation’s housing supply so all families can access safe, stable, and affordable homes. After more than a decade of bipartisan work on housing, we’re encouraged to see so many impactful solutions from senators on both sides of the aisle included. We look forward to working with Congress to make this legislation law.”
Catholic Charities USA, Kerry Alys Robinson, President and CEO
“Everyone deserves a decent, safe place to call home. But a severe shortage of affordable housing and a critical lack of services continue to lead to alarming rates of homelessness around our nation. This is an urgent moral crisis, and we are grateful to the sponsors of the Road to Housing legislation for putting forth concrete, commonsense solutions and seeking to treat all of our neighbors with the dignity and compassion they deserve.”
Chamber of Progress, Adam Kovacevich, CEO
"The last time Congress passed meaningful housing reform, George H.W. Bush was president. It's no wonder we're facing an affordability crisis. The path forward for Democrats is making it easier, quicker, and cheaper to build. The ROAD to Housing Act has a ton of great ideas that should become law as soon as possible."
Coalition for Affordable Homeownership (Members: Community Opportunity Alliance, Center for Community Progress, Grounded Solutions Network, Habitat for Humanity International, Housing Assistance Council, Local Initiatives Support Corporation, National Community Stabilization Trust, National NeighborWorks Association)
"Members of the Coalition for Affordable Homeownership applaud Chairman Tim Scott and Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren for their leadership in bringing the ROAD to Housing Act to a historic, bipartisan markup. The nation is facing a severe shortage of affordable homes, especially starter homes. The ambitious scope of this legislation confirms the importance of taking bold action to address our country's housing supply and affordability challenges and to create homeownership opportunities."
Coalition for Home Repair
"The Coalition for Home Repair welcomes this bipartisan housing package and the continued recognition of home repair and housing preservation as key components of housing policy. The inclusion of Whole-Home Repairs signals a growing understanding that preserving existing homes is critical to housing stability, especially for homeowners with low incomes and older adults."
Corporation for Supportive Housing, Deb DeSantis, President and CEO
“The ROAD to Housing Act of 2025 represents a constructive step toward addressing our nation’s housing and homelessness crisis. We applaud the bipartisan leadership of Chair Tim Scott, Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren, and the members of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs for recognizing that stable, affordable housing is a pathway for individuals with disabilities and complex health needs to achieve greater stability and independence. By investing in practical, results-driven solutions and encouraging collaboration across housing, health, finance, and local systems, this legislation reflects the kind of pragmatic policymaking that can drive real progress on housing and homelessness. CSH is proud to support efforts that reduce barriers to housing development, expand access to affordable housing options, and strengthen long-term stability for individuals and families.”
Council for Affordable and Rural Housing, Colleen M. Fisher, Executive Director
“The Council for Affordable and Rural Housing (CARH) applauds the efforts of Chairman Scott and Ranking Member Warren and their staffs in forging this historic bipartisan housing bill. CARH and our members throughout the country are very pleased that the rural housing reform bill, sponsored by Senators Rounds and Smith has been included, as it will not only provide the necessary tools for owners to preserve properties in the existing portfolio, but also continue necessary rental assistance, providing current and future residents affordable housing in communities where they choose to live. The bill will also permanently authorize the multifamily housing preservation program, which has been a demonstration program, thus giving owners another financing tool for the preservation of existing properties. Finally, the inclusion of Senators Moran and Sheehan’s bill on streamlining environmental regulations when there is funding on properties both from the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the United States Department of Agriculture, will be the first step in helping to reduce regulatory costs associated with operating affordable housing in rural areas. We urge the Committee to pass this important and historic legislation and hope that the full Senate will quickly consider the bill, sending it to the House of Representatives for its concurrence and then to the President for signature.”
Council of State Community Development Agencies, Tess Hembree, Executive Director
“The ROAD to Housing Act of 2025 is a collection of some of the best ideas to improve America’s housing and community development landscape. COSCDA’s state agency members manage a significant portion of HUD’s grant programs. From our perspective, this bill would reduce administrative burden, promote housing supply, and improve HUD’s homelessness and disaster recovery programs. COSCDA applauds Senator Scott and Senator Warren for their commitment to addressing the nation’s most pressing housing needs.”
Enterprise Community Partners, Shaun Donovan, President and CEO
"Senators Scott and Warren are responding to a clarion call from the American people: Make housing more affordable, more plentiful, and more secure for everyone in this country. Their latest proposal includes investments that will spur local economies, support millions of jobs, and drive down costs for renters and homeowners alike — but they are also working to make sure every dollar goes as far as possible, streamlining regulations and cutting through barriers to create more homes for more people faster and cheaper. This legislation is proof that a pro-housing, pro-economy, pro-opportunity agenda is bipartisan. Lawmakers across the board will do well to support this legislation and respond to what their voters have clearly said is their biggest priority: driving down costs."
Shaun Donovan on Build Now Act:
"With this legislation, coupled with other provisions in the bipartisan banking bill, Senators Warren and Kennedy are crafting thoughtful incentives for states and local communities to create affordable and plentiful housing. This legislation will encourage higher cost communities to meaningfully grow their housing supply while ensuring that more affordable places continue to receive critical funds for housing and community infrastructure.”
Grounded Solutions Network, Doug Ryan, Vice President
“As the only national housing network dedicated to advancing housing with lasting affordability, Grounded Solutions Network thanks you for your leadership on the bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act of 2025. The bill will help our partners address housing supply, finance gaps, and appraisal challenges, and, crucially, elevates shared equity housing. We also are pleased to see the proposed reauthorization of the HOME Investment Partnership program, which for decades has been a critical component of our partners’ successful housing initiatives.”
Groundwork Collaborative, Alex Jacquez, Chief of Policy and Advocacy
"Housing costs are one of the biggest concerns Americans face right now. Each month, higher mortgages and rents are eating up more and more of families’ budgets. The ROAD to Housing Act makes progress toward increasing the housing supply and addressing the affordability crisis for tenants and families."
Habitat for Humanity, Jonathan Reckford, CEO
“At a time when our nation is reeling from the skyrocketing cost of housing, we applaud Chairman Tim Scott, Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren and members of the Senate Banking Committee for taking this critical step to address the affordable housing crisis. Meeting the multifaceted housing needs in rural, urban and suburban communities will take a collection of solutions, and so I am encouraged to see that this bipartisan bill includes provisions to unlock supply, preserve existing housing stock and streamline housing programs. Habitat for Humanity International stands ready to support these and other housing investments that will bring homeownership within reach of more American families.”
Housing Assistance Council, David Lipsetz, President and CEO
“HAC applauds Chairman Scott and Ranking Member Warren for their remarkable work on the ROAD to Housing Act. Housing is the largest monthly expense for American families, and the housing affordability crisis is as urgent in small town and rural America as in the nation’s cities and suburbs. That’s why it’s so important that the Committee is moving legislation forward on a comprehensive and bipartisan basis.”
Local Initiatives Support Corporation
“LISC applauds @SenatorTimScott & @SenWarren for introducing the bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act of 2025. This legislation takes a comprehensive approach to addressing our nation's affordable housing crisis and we call on Congress to pass it.”
Low Income Investment Fund
“The ROAD to Housing Act promotes much-needed investments in affordable housing infrastructure that will help expand the supply of homes for all. The proposed provisions reflect the solutions needed to tackle supply shortages and rising costs that have put secure housing out of reach for far too many. These provisions include increased resources for affordable housing construction; zoning reforms; strengthened community development tools; and expanded support for rental-assistance programs. LIIF strongly supports the bill’s focus on leveraging public and private capital, plus fostering cross-sector collaboration to scale solutions that meet the urgency and complexity of the housing crisis. This is especially needed in our nation’s low-income communities.”
National Association of Affordable Housing Lenders, Sarah Brundage, President and CEO
“NAAHL applauds Chair Scott, Ranking Member Warren, and all members of the Banking Committee for their commitment to addressing our nation’s affordable housing crisis and their collaboration on this bipartisan housing package. The ROAD to Housing Act will increase investments and remove unnecessary barriers to development to boost housing supply, bringing down housing costs for American families in urban, suburban, and rural communities.”
National Association of Homebuilders, Lake A. Coulson, Senior Vice President
“On behalf of the more than 140,000 members of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), I am writing to support the ROAD to Housing Act of 2025. This comprehensive package will take a significant step forward toward addressing our nation’s critical lack of housing supply. Specifically, NAHB is encouraged that the legislation includes favorable provisions aimed at zoning and land-use policies, the aging housing stock, rural housing, and multifamily housing.”
National Association of Local Housing Finance Agencies, Jonathan M. Paine, CAE, Executive Director
“Chairman Scott and Ranking Member Warren’s ROAD to Housing Act of 2025 brings forward a strong package of proposals aimed at increasing the nation’s housing availability. As local housing finance agencies responsible for administering key federal housing resources, NALHFA members recognize the bill’s potential to reduce administrative burdens, expand housing supply and improve the effectiveness of HUD programs. The legislation’s inclusion of The HOME Investment Partnerships Reauthorization and Improvement Act is an example of collaboration the bill brings to the table and moves the conversation on housing needs toward actionable results in Washington, D.C. NALHFA applauds this bipartisan effort to improve and streamline federal resources for housing availability.”
National Association of Residential Property Managers, Gail Phillips, CAE, CEO
“On behalf of the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM®), thank you for holding a markup on the ROAD to Housing Act. We appreciate your attention to and leadership on issues critical to our members and the broader American economy. By way of background, NARPM is a professional association of real estate experts who specialize in managing single-family and small multifamily residential properties—an asset class predominantly composed of small landlords. We strongly support the inclusion in the ROAD to Housing Act of several legislative provisions that will help expand access to quality, affordable rental housing for American families.”
National Association of Realtors, Kevin M. Sears, 2025 President
“On behalf of the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), I write to express our strong support for the Renewing Opportunity in the American Dream to Housing Act of 2025 (ROAD to Housing Act). We commend your leadership in crafting this landmark, comprehensive piece of legislation that addresses the full spectrum of housing needs while prioritizing pathways to homeownership for American families. NAR previously endorsed many of these provisions as standalone measures, and we appreciate this collaborative approach to addressing our nation's housing challenges. The ROAD to Housing Act represents the kind of thoughtful, bipartisan approach needed to address America's housing challenges. By focusing on expanding supply, reducing barriers to development, preserving existing housing, strengthening disaster recovery efforts, and creating pathways to homeownership, this critical legislation will help ensure that the American Dream of homeownership remains accessible to families across the economic spectrum.”
National Alliance to End Homelessness, John Threlkeld, Senior Congressional Affairs Manager
“The National Alliance to End Homelessness is pleased to endorse the ROAD to Housing Act because it is a serious, bipartisan effort by Chairman Scott and Ranking Member Warren and their colleagues to make housing more affordable. The measure would also make modest, low-cost, or even no-cost changes that would make it easier for communities to reduce and prevent homelessness. We look forward to working with the Senate Banking Committee to resolve any remaining issues that may be raised by our national partners.”
National Community Development Association, Vicki Watson, Executive Director
"Overall, NCDA supports the ROAD to Housing Act and the meaningful program reform changes and new initiatives included in the measure, particularly the HOME Investment Partnerships Reauthorization and Improvement Act, Reducing Homelessness Through Program Reform Act, Reforming Disaster Recovery Act, and the Whole Homes Repairs Act. This sweeping legislation will have a profound impact on affordable housing and will provide greater flexibility, resources, and solutions for local governments."
National Consumer Law Center (on behalf of its low-income clients), Alys Cohen, Director of Federal Housing Advocacy
“This bill offers tangible progress in making homeownership more attainable, more affordable, and more equitable, and in delivering a permanent long-term disaster relief program. While we are encouraged by the advances, we urge Congress to ensure the new programs are implemented with transparency and equity and that further progress can be made to ensure fair housing and to protect the rights of tenants, especially in public housing."
National Council of State Housing Agencies
"The National Council of State Housing Agencies strongly supports the ROAD to Housing Act of 2025 and commends Chairman Tim Scott (R-SC), Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), and all the members of the Banking Committee for their bipartisan leadership in advancing ways to increase the supply of affordable housing. This comprehensive and important bill addresses our serious affordable housing needs by cutting red tape, improving the HOME Investment Partnerships program, reforming rural housing programs, promoting more private investment in affordable housing, and creating several new programs to encourage the production and preservation of affordable housing. We hope the Senate will advance this bipartisan bill soon and look forward to working with Congress to make it law. "
National Housing Conference, David M. Dworkin, President and CEO
“The housing affordability crisis has impacted every community in America, regardless of politics or geography. It requires urgent, bipartisan, comprehensive action. I am grateful to Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee Chairman Tim Scott (R-S.C) and Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) for their leadership in crafting and advancing the ROAD to Housing Act, which seeks to expand and preserve housing supply, improve housing affordability and access, advance accountability and fiscal responsibility, and improve oversight and program integrity.”
National Housing Resource Center, Bruce Dorpalen, Executive Director
"Senators Tim Scott and Elizabeth Warren are taking an innovative, bipartisan step toward addressing America’s housing crisis. . By streamlining programs, reducing burdensome paperwork, accelerating disaster recovery funding, and simplifying manufactured housing construction, this bill tackles the barriers that keep families from finding or staying in affordable housing. This legislation will expand access to housing counseling for distressed homeowners with FHA, VA, and USDA loans—providing critical support when it is needed most. Housing counselors nationwide stand ready to help implement these solutions as soon as they become law."
National Low Income Housing Coalition, Renee Willis, President and CEO
“The National Low Income Housing Coalition (NLIHC) applauds Senate Banking Committee Chair Tim Scott (R-SC), Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), and their colleagues for introducing the ‘ROAD to Housing Act of 2025,’ and holding the Committee’s first markup of a comprehensive, bipartisan housing package in over a decade. The nation’s affordable housing and homelessness crisis is rooted in the growing gap between incomes and the cost of rent, and the severe, pervasive shortage of affordable, available, accessible homes for households with the lowest incomes. This bill would provide common-sense solutions and needed reforms that will help programs better serve people with the most urgent affordable housing needs.”
National Multifamily Housing Council
"On behalf of the combined members of the National Multifamily Housing Council (NMHC), the National Apartment Association (NAA), and the Real Estate Technology and Transformation Center (RETTC), we are writing to express our strong support for your action on the ROAD to Housing Act. This legislation can be an important step in tackling the nation’s housing crisis. We are especially pleased that the Road to Housing Act includes several individual measures that promote the development of rental housing and help to address our nation’s housing supply shortage."
National NeighborWorks Association, Lou Tisler, Executive Director
“The National NeighborWorks Association, representing nearly 250 NeighborWorks organizations nationwide, strongly supports the bipartisan leadership of Chairman Scott, Ranking Member Warren, and the full SBHUA Committee in advancing the ROAD to Housing Act of 2025. This comprehensive legislation represents a historic investment in housing, coupled with smart regulatory reform, to increase supply, expand access, and improve affordability nationwide. Our members work tirelessly every day to address urgent housing needs in communities across the country, and the ROAD to Housing Act of 2025 provides the bold, balanced federal action necessary to meet this moment. We urge Congress to pass this critical bill without delay.”
Niskansen Center
"Today's Senate Banking markup demonstrates Congress's readiness to tackle America's housing crisis. This landmark package delivers crucial financing and manufactured housing reforms, while incorporating bipartisan provisions from the Build More Housing Near Transit Act, Housing Supply Frameworks Act, and the new Build Now Act—sponsored by Senator Kennedy (R-LA) and Ranking Member Warren (D-MA).” This package, the first of its kind in nearly two decades, serves as a crucial first step toward bringing housing affordability and access back to the American people. We praise Chairman Tim Scott, Ranking Member Warren, and all Committee members for their leadership, and we urge swift bipartisan passage of this vital housing legislation.”
Real Estate Roundtable, Jeffrey D. DeBoer, President and CEO
“The Real Estate Roundtable (RER) is pleased to express our support for theReducing Obstacles to Affordable Development (ROAD) to Housing Act of 2025. This bipartisan legislation represents a significant step toward addressing one of the most pressing challenges facing our nation: expanding housing supply for both renters and homeowners, and improving affordability for working families.”
ROC USA, Emily Thaden, President
“By including authorization for the PRICE program, the bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act of 2025 takes a bold, but common-sense step towards ensuring manufactured housing communities have the resources to maintain resilient and healthy infrastructure just like any other community. We thank Senators Cortez Masto (D-NV), Banks (R-IN), Scott (R-SC), Warren (D-MA), and the many other champions of the legislation for hearing their constituents and addressing critical needs in these neighborhoods of manufactured homes.”
Veteran’s Association of Real Estate Professionals, Son Nguyen, Founder & President
“We applaud Chairman Scott and Ranking Member Warren for their bipartisan leadership on the ROAD to Housing Act of 2025. This bill reflects a serious commitment to addressing housing disparities and empowering trusted community-based solutions.”
