House Passes Housing Bill, First Win for Bipartisan Affordability Plan

The House passed bipartisan legislation to speed up affordable housing construction, the first enacted item from the Problem Solvers Caucus's Affordability Agenda. The group of Democrats and Republicans is also pushing permitting reform, immigration changes, and action on energy, health care, child care, and food costs. The bill heads to the Senate, where bipartisan measures often stall.
