Statement of NHC President and CEO David M. Dworkin on President Biden’s American Jobs Plan

President Biden’s infrastructure plan represents a major achievement in recognizing housing as essential human infrastructure. The historic level of funding proposed would be an investment in the future of our country by addressing the persistent affordable housing needs faced by millions of Americans. Increasing and preserving housing stock that is affordable creates jobs, fights social and economic inequities, and helps stabilize our economy.

Statement by David M. Dworkin President and CEO National Housing Conference (NHC) on President Biden’s Intention to Nominate Adrianne Todman for Deputy Secretary of U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)

Statement of NHC President and CEO David M. Dworkin on the passing of President Biden’s COVID-19 relief plan

On behalf of the National Housing Conference (NHC), I would like to commend President Biden for his signing of the $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief plan to provide much-needed assistance to millions of renters and homeowners who continue to face hardship due to the ongoing pandemic, as well as struggling mom-and-pop landlords who are working to stay afloat after going nearly a year without rental payments.

Statement of NHC President and CEO David M. Dworkin on President-elect Biden’s relief plan

On behalf of the National Housing Conference (NHC), I would like to commend President-elect Joseph Biden for moving quickly to put forth a comprehensive plan to introduce additional emergency rental assistance. As industry leaders have expressed, the first $25 billion was a significant down payment towards the rental crisis, but research has proven an additional $25 billion is certainly needed. President-elect Biden’s plan, coupled with the U.S. Department of Treasury’s efforts to expeditiously provide funds to states and localities, represents monumental steps in the right direction.
