At a meeting with state legislative leaders from ten states held to further the goals of President Biden’s Housing Supply Action Plan, White House Officials from the National Economic Council, Domestic Policy Council, and Office of Intergovernmental Affairs emphasized the importance of decreasing expenses for employed households to the President. In October 2022, the Biden-Harris Government declared principal advances on carrying out its Housing Supply Activity Plan, including finalizing rules that facilitate the formation of multi-income housing, extending the time frames for the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC), organizing a Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac financing scheme, and advertising further housing opportunities near public transportation. At the gathering, White House Representatives mentioned that they would like to collaborate with local and state governments to grow housing opportunities, shield renters, lower homelessness, and authorize equal rights in housing. Policy-makers from California, Oregon, and Maine narrated how they had made laws to increase housing availability at cost-effective prices. Lawmakers from other states discussed the steps they were taking to promote changes to land-use laws for the 2023 legislative period. Today, state leaders talked about different measures to cut down rules making affordable housing expensive, add more money to affordable housing funds, defend tenant rights, make sure everyone has fair access to housing, and tackle homelessness. Legislators from the meeting today were: Toni Atkins is the temporary leader of the Senate in California. Scott Wiener is the assistant majority whip of the California Senate.
