Every night, hundreds of thousands of Americans experience homelessness in cities and suburbs across our nation. It’s a problem that’s not isolated to places like New York, San Francisco, or Los Angeles. It’s something I’ve seen on the ground in New Hampshire over the last few months, too.
But it’s not just that — millions more Americans are struggling to pay ballooning rents, and so many young people have given up on the American Dream of ever owning a home. As President, my priority is creating a more affordable America, and that can only happen if we address our housing crisis.
That’s why today I’m announcing my housing plan: - Building 7 million new homes to help bolster the housing supply in America.
-
Changing zoning laws to encourage more affordable housing in the areas that need it most.
- Focusing on sustainable housing and innovative home building to address the climate needs inherent to the housing market.
-
Increasing access to financing for those purchasing a home and providing protections for renters to ensure their homes remain affordable.
- Ensuring all veterans have access to homes and guaranteeing mental health and disability support for all Americans who need it.
We’re the richest nation on Earth — we need to invest in Americans. Would you join us by chipping in $24 to make this vision a reality?
