The bill establishes a bipartisan Task Force on the Impact of the Affordable Housing Crisis to evaluate how a lack of affordable housing affects education, employment, health, and other life outcomes, quantify associated costs to federal, state, and local programs, and recommend ways to use affordable housing to improve federal program effectiveness. The Task Force, composed of 18 experts appointed by congressional leaders, will hold hearings, gather data from federal agencies, accept public comment, and submit a final report to relevant congressional committees within two years of member appointments. Funding is authorized for fiscal years 2027 through 2030 to support the Task Force’s work.
