Legislative Commission on Housing Affordability elimination

SF 1445 repeals Minnesota Statutes section 3.8845, which established the Legislative Commission on Housing Affordability. This bill eliminates the commission that studied housing affordability issues, reviewed policies affecting homeownership access, and provided research and recommendations to the legislature. The commission, composed of appointed legislators, was created to address housing costs, construction challenges, and barriers for first-time or disadvantaged homebuyers. By repealing the statute, the bill ends the commission's formal role in this work without creating a new structure. This is a procedural change affecting the legislative process, not a new policy.
