Key Points

  • Congress would put tens of billions into fixing and rebuilding public housing, plus more money to build and preserve affordable rental homes.
  • The bill boosts rent help by adding money for housing vouchers, including set-asides for people facing homelessness and survivors of violence.
  • It creates big new help for first-generation buyers, including down payment support up to $20,000 or 10% of the price, plus required homebuyer counseling.
  • It would fund lead hazard cleanup and other home health and safety fixes, and also pay for energy and water upgrades in affordable apartments.
  • It increases fair housing enforcement funding and requires more accessible units in many federally assisted housing projects.
