Status: HopperSession: September 2026 Senate SessionIssue: Housing

Summary

This bill uses federal grants, tax incentives, and low-interest financing to encourage more affordable housing through zoning reform, office-to-housing conversions, and transit-oriented infill. It also ties some housing funds to renter protections like clear leases, habitability standards, advance notice of big rent hikes, and just-cause eviction rules where state law allows.

Full text

A bill to expand the supply of affordable housing by establishing a competitive federal grant program for states and localities that modernize zoning, convert vacant or underused commercial properties into mixed-income housing, and support transit-accessible infill development; to strengthen renter protections by conditioning certain federal housing funds on clear lease terms, basic habitability standards, just-cause eviction policies where permitted by state law, and advance notice of major rent increases; and to provide targeted tax incentives and low-interest financing for energy-efficient redevelopment and preservation of affordable units in high-cost and economically neglected communities.
