Our Homes - Ending the Housing Crisis: The Biden-Harris Administration on Building Affordable Housing
Description
The Biden-Harris administration has made efforts to promote housing development. While the Build Back Better bill has stalled, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill and the American Rescue Plan passed last year have been essential in supporting American housing. Erika Poethig explains that at the heart of almost every issue from crime to poverty is related to a lack of housing stability. By investing in creating more housing units, maintaining our available stock of housing, and assembling coalitions of agencies and governments, the U.S. can make housing affordable.
Erika Poethig, the Special Assistant to the President for Housing and Urban Policy at the White House’s Domestic Policy Council, discusses America’s housing problem and federal housing policy. This episode of Our Homes is hosted by Senator Stanley Chang.
