Legislative Progress

House
Senate
President
Law

Key Points

  • Congress would order the government’s watchdog office to study a nationwide set of building rules for homes.
  • The study would look at whether one federal code could speed up local approval for new housing construction.
  • It would also examine whether a single code could lower homebuilding costs and make housing more affordable.
  • The report would consider whether uniform rules could improve the quality of homes, not just the price.
  • If the bill became law, the report would be due to Congress within 1 year.
