Economy, jobs & cost of living: “Ensuring access to safe, quality, and affordable housing is essential to building strong and stable communities. This means supporting responsible housing development that meets the growing needs of individuals and families, while also protecting renters from unfair practices and rising costs that threaten housing stability. It also involves creating clear and attainable pathways to homeownership, so more people have the opportunity to build generational wealth and long-term security. By addressing housing affordability from multiple angles, we can help ensure that everyone has a place to call home and the foundation needed to thrive.”
