The Housing Supply Frameworks Act — whose bipartisan sponsors includes Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) — offers a framework for state and local governments to modernize outdated zoning and land-use regulations that hinder new housing development. “The rising cost of housing is putting the American dream out of reach for working families across our country,” said Rep. Mike Flood (R, NE-1), one of the sponsors of the House bill. “We need an all-of-the-above approach to addressing America's housing crisis.” The bill would not impose federal mandates. Instead, it would equip communities with expert guidance, technical assistance and best practices to enable smart, locally driven policy reforms that increase the housing supply across all income levels. The National Association of Realtors supports the bill.
