Legislative & Policy

Today, the Senate passed the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act by a bipartisan vote of 89 to 10. The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act contains many of the provisions from the Senate’s ROAD to Housing Act and the House’s Housing for the 21st Century Act. The bill will now head to the House for final passage. 

CLPHA convened the 10 Year Roadmap for Public Housing Sustainability to not only draw attention to the crisis created by the aging infrastructure of America’s public housing portfolio, but also to explore financial tools that can scale to the size of the need to preserve one of America’s most effective safety net platforms. The benefits of revitalizing public housing are numerous, from improved health, education, and life outcomes for millions of public housing residents to stronger neighborhoods and communities.
