Many key themes emerged, including rising constructions costs, limited housing supply, and workforce housing and labor shortages. Feedback gathered through this effort will inform Senator Crapo\u2019s legislative actions on housing and contributed to proposals sponsored by Crapo and ultimately included in the Senate-passed 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act.\n\n\u201cThe input we received from Idahoans shapes ongoing solutions to address housing challenges facing the state and country,\u201d said Crapo. \u201cI thank residents, community leaders, local officials and industry professionals who took the time to share their perspectives and expertise. This feedback will continue to help guide legislation that takes meaningful steps toward increasing housing supply and strengthening affordable housing opportunities for Idaho families.\u201d\n\nCrapo remains committed to advancing policies that support sustainable housing development, improve affordability and ensure Idaho communities can continue to grow and thrive, without the use of excessive federal government overreach. While the survey is closed, Senator Crapo encourages Idahoans to continue to share feedback on this topic, or others, by contacting one of his offices throughout the state or via email on his website.\n\nTo read the executive summary of the survey findings, click here.\n\nThe full report is available on the Senator\u2019s website here.\n\n###", 1, "2026-06-06T06:16:30Z", "2026-06-06T06:17:47Z"]], "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://www.crapo.senate.gov/media/newsreleases/crapo-releases-finalized-idaho-housing-survey-report"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7899953052401543, "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"}
