Pro-Housing Act: Grants and Land for Affordable Housing Development.

This act aims to increase housing availability by supporting local authorities. It introduces grant and loan programs for developing housing plans and transfers unused federal properties for housing construction. This means citizens can expect more affordable housing options in their communities.
Key points
Local authorities can apply for grants and low-cost loans to create and implement plans that increase housing availability.
Priority for support is given to projects that improve housing supply, affordability, and accessibility for everyone, especially near transit and job centers.
Unused federal government properties will be transferred to states and local governments for the construction of housing or mixed-use developments.
The act requires recipients to report on progress, and the government will study the impact of these actions on the housing market.
