The U.S. House has overwhelmingly passed the Housing for the 21st Century Act in a 390–9 vote, advancing a bipartisan effort aimed at addressing America's housing affordability crisis. The sweeping package focuses on boosting housing supply, streamlining development regulations, expanding financing for manufactured and multifamily housing, and modernizing federal housing programs.

Now, the bill heads to the Senate, where lawmakers must reconcile differences with the previously proposed ROAD to Housing Act. Will Congress deliver meaningful housing reform — or will negotiations stall?

In this episode, Kathy Fettke breaks down what's in the bill, what happens next, and what it could mean for housing supply and affordability nationwide.
