Affordability

Increases in housing, energy, food, and other costs have made it more difficult than ever before for many working families in our district to make ends meet. As your representative in Congress, I will support efforts to:

• Enact Democratic proposals to create over 1 million affordable homes through nearly $10 billion for a new Affordable Housing Access Program and affordable housing with mass-transit access;
• Provide $65 billion towards addressing the capital needs backlog for public housing;
• Support tax fairness for our district by restoring the full SALT deduction;
• Work toward federal solutions for the ongoing supply chain crisis;
• Increase the federal minimum wage to $15; and
• Address the student debt crisis.
