Washington, D.C. – July 25, 2025 – David M. Dworkin, President and CEO of the National Housing Conference (NHC), released the following statement in support of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee’s ROAD to Housing Act, a comprehensive, bipartisan housing and community development package scheduled for committee markup on July 29.
“The housing affordability crisis has impacted every community in America, regardless of politics or geography. It requires urgent, bipartisan, comprehensive action. I am grateful to Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee Chairman Tim Scott (R-S.C) and Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) for their leadership in crafting and advancing the ROAD to Housing Act, which seeks to expand and preserve housing supply, improve housing affordability and access, advance accountability and fiscal responsibility, and improve oversight and program integrity.
The ROAD to Housing Act includes several important proposals that the National Housing Conference has long supported or endorsed, including the PRICE Act, Whole-Home Repairs Act, HOME Investment Partnerships Reauthorization and Improvement Act, Choice in Affordable Housing Act, and Build More Housing Near Transit Act. The National Housing Conference is proud to support this legislation and looks forward to working with members of the Senate and House of Representatives to enact this bipartisan legislation.”
