Washington, D.C. — Congressman Tom Barrett (MI-07) today announced another package of bills to continue building the second pillar of his Blueprint for a Better America: Reviving the American Dream. Included in this six-bill package are proposals aimed at tackling the growing issue of housing affordability in the United States by preventing large investment corporations from buying up homes and pricing families out, lowering costs for homebuyers, and getting more homes on the market.
Housing costs are out of control, and hard-working families in Michigan are paying the price. As homeownership grows increasingly out of reach, Americans are struggling to start a family and put down roots. That’s why I’m working to Revive the American Dream by making long overdue changes that will finally put more families in a home that works for them.
