House leadership is targeting next week for a vote on Housing for the 21st Century Act.
In Context: The House Committee on Financial Services passed the bill almost unanimously (50-1) last year. See NH&RA’s write up on the bill and the hearing in our December 24 edition.
Dive Deeper: The bill could be considered under suspension of House rules, which would expedite passage of the legislation and prevent any amendments to the bill on the House floor.
What’s Next: If the bill passes, House and Senate leaders will need to reconcile the differences between this bill and the Senate’s ROAD to Housing Act through a conference process to produce a final bill.
