The bipartisan bill, which includes six Goodlander-cosponsored provisions, will cut red tape and outdated rules that are jacking up housing costs and will make it easier and faster to build and finance housing in New Hampshire and across America.\n\nThe vote today is part of a steady record of housing leadership for Goodlander, who has made lowering costs for Granite Staters a central focus for her work in Congress. Last week, she introduced the bipartisan Build Housing Affordably Act to pause federal rules that are driving up costs and stalling affordable housing projects across New Hampshire.\n\n\u201cEverywhere I go in New Hampshire, I hear the same thing: people are working hard, doing everything right, and still struggling to afford a home. The reality is simple \u2014 we do not have enough housing,\u201d said Congresswoman Goodlander. \u201cOur bipartisan bill takes practical steps to build more homes, reduce needless delays, expand financing options, and crack down on costly practices of corporate investors who are buying up the American Dream. I will never stop fighting to ensure Granite Staters can stay and thrive in the communities we all love.\u201d\n\nThe 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act \u2014 a bipartisan, bicameral effort \u2014 includes six Goodlander-cosponsored provisions that will:\n\nAccelerate home building with pre-approved \u201cpattern books\u201d for missing-middle and infill housing that speed up approvals and cut construction costs, especially in rural communities. (H.R. 5907)\n\nCut needless bureaucracy holding up the development of rural housing (H.R. 4989)\n\nExpand the housing supply by allowing modular housing to be built and financed more easily (H.R. 6293)\n\nSupport resident-owned manufactured housing communities by reauthorizing the PRICE grant program, which supports community ownership of housing communities by helping pay for infrastructure improvements and redevelopment (H.R. 4477)\n\nEnsure veterans and their families get the benefits they\u2019re entitled to when it comes to seeking home loans (H.R. 2362 and H.R. 3694)\n\nImprove Build America, Buy America by requiring updated, clearer guidance on how these requirements apply to the HOME program.\n\nThe bipartisan bill reflects Goodlander\u2019s practical, bipartisan approach to tackling the housing crisis: clear the obstacles that make homes more expensive, back the people working to add supply, and make sure every federal dollar dedicated to this cause is actually delivering more homes people can afford.\n\nIt builds on a broader push by Goodlander to take on the forces driving up housing costs. She is helping to lead bipartisan legislation to expand financing for accessory dwelling units and affordable housing development, supported cracking down on corporate landlords and private equity firms that drive up rents and home prices, and backed efforts to increase housing supply and make homeownership more accessible for working families, seniors, and first-time buyers.\n\n###\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b", 1, "2026-06-24T06:25:30Z", "2026-06-24T06:26:49Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://goodlander.house.gov/media/press-releases/house-sends-goodlander-backed-bipartisan-bill-to-build-more-homes-and-lower-costs-to-the-presidents-desk/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8821629453450441, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
