Last week the House of Representatives passed a $1.5 trillion infrastructure package (H.R. 2), which includes several housing provisions. A summary of the housing provisions in the bill can be found here. The measure passed by a vote of 233 to 188, with three Republicans crossing party lines to support it and two Democrats breaking with their party to vote “no.” The bill now heads over to the Senate for consideration and is unlikely to advance. When asked about the bill, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said, “so naturally, this nonsense is not going anywhere in the Senate. It will just join the list of absurd House proposals that were only drawn up to show fealty to the radical left.” Senate Republicans and the Trump administration are reportedly drafting their own infrastructure package.
