Affordable Housing Reform: Expanding Eligibility and Streamlining Construction.

This Act expands access to federal housing programs by raising the income limit for eligible families to 100% of the area's median income. It introduces significant administrative and environmental simplifications for small construction projects, aiming to accelerate the creation of new, safe, and affordable rental and ownership housing. These changes are designed to increase the housing supply by reducing bureaucracy and costs for developers.
Key points
More families qualify for housing assistance: The income limit is raised to 100% of the area's median income, broadening access to affordable housing.
Faster construction: Environmental reviews are streamlined, and labor requirements are eased for small projects (up to 24 units), intended to lower costs and increase housing supply.
