## Resource

Congress just passed a historic bipartisan housing bill aimed at making homes more affordable and protecting renters — a rare feat in today’s polarized politics. Designed to tackle soaring rents and a nationwide housing shortage, the legislation expands financing, promotes new housing types like modular homes, strengthens tenant protections, and supports homelessness programs. With first-time homebuyers now averaging 40 and rental costs skyrocketing since the pandemic, this comprehensive plan offers real solutions — from incentivizing local construction to repurposing abandoned infrastructure. It’s a powerful sign that when the stakes are high, lawmakers can still unite for the people. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
