Congress actually agrees on something: A massive plan to fix housing
In a shock twist, the U.S. House and Senate stopped fighting long enough to pass a major housing reform bill that might actually do something.
It feels like we just witnessed a legislative miracle. After months of bickering, the U.S. House and Senate finally decided to play nice and passed the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act by a massive margin. Donald Trump Donald Trump is expected to sign it, which is the final piece of this weird, bipartisan fever dream.
The big takeaway here is that they are finally trying to limit how much massive corporations can hoard houses just for rentals. They are also trying to slice through some of that soul-crushing red tape that keeps builders from actually, you know, building things. If you've been looking at real estate prices and wondering if you'll ever own a home, this is the first time in ages that Washington has even pretended to care.
It’s almost charming when they manage to act like a functional government instead of a group of squabbling toddlers. Whether this actually lowers your rent or just gives builders more lobbyist-funded tax breaks remains the million-dollar question.
