Pro-Housing Act of 2025
HR 891, the Pro-Housing Act of 2025, provides federal grants and low-cost loans to states, cities, and tribes to develop and implement local housing plans. It requires recipients to address housing supply, affordability, and accessibility for all income levels while avoiding displacement of current residents, with priority given to plans that improve transit-accessible housing near job centers. The bill allocates $200 million annually for 2026-2031, mandates 20% of funds for rural or exurban areas, and includes a pilot program to transfer unused federal property for affordable housing development. It also requires annual reports on progress and a 5-year study to evaluate the program's impact on housing supply and affordability.
