Housing


Our economy will continue to suffer and consumer confidence will never return if we do not help hard-working middle-class families navigate their mortgage hardships.

We will not be able to grow our economy and strengthen our middle class without fixing our housing situation. That is why I will continue working on policies that make housing more affordable, encourage more homes to be built, and make home insurance more accessible and affordable, reduce foreclosures, strengthen our housing market and improve home values. This is good for homeowners, good for communities and good for our economy.

In response to devastating fires in our district, I secured disaster funding which has been used to build over 1,800 units in our district.  I am also leading bipartisan legislation that tackles the insurance crisis.  My legislation addresses the heart of the issue by providing grants and tax credits for communities to reduce disaster risk, which will bring insurance providers back into our area, increase competition and reduct prices.
