Support the Homes Act of 2024
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Tina Smith just unveiled a historic new bill for social housing called the Homes Act, which would establish a new, federally backed development authority to finance and build homes in big cities and small towns across America using union labor.
It would then turn the management of those residences over to entities that agree to manage them for permanent affordability. Under this plan:
- Rent would be capped at 25% of a household’s adjusted gross income;
- Homes would be built and set aside for lower-income families in mixed-income buildings and communities;
- Every home would be built to modern and efficient standards to ensure health and safety while cutting utility costs for residents.
