The Senate passed the bipartisan bill 85-5, and it now heads to the U.S. House of Representatives. “No matter where I travel in Wisconsin, whether it's big cities like Milwaukee and Madison or small villages like Brandon and Biron, everyone is struggling to keep up with the rising cost of living – and housing is at the top of that list of monthly expenses,” said Senator Baldwin. “Homeownership feels increasingly out of reach for too many families, and our bipartisan bill would be a step in the right direction so families can put down roots and live in the communities they love. Our bill will cut red tape and make it easier to get shovels in the ground and build more affordable housing. After years of working on it, I’m glad that we are finally cracking down on Wall Street investors that come into our communities, buy up single-family homes, and jack up prices for families or cut them out entirely.” | 1 | 2026-06-23T06:27:52Z | 2026-06-23T06:29:20Z |
