State and local governments have more power than they might realize, more capital than is first apparent, and more capacity than they may have utilized in recent decades.
The National Housing Crisis Task Force released a State and Local Housing Action Plan detailing specific tools in the following categories that state and local governments have at their disposal to address the housing crisis:

- Capital;
- Construction;
- Regulation and policy; and
- Governance.
Go deeper: The Task Force is co-chaired by Cleveland Mayor Justin Bib, Utah Governor Spencer Cox, Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens, and Fifth Third Community Development Corporation President Susan Thomas.
