The Briefing Room: The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act
Description
For much of this series, the housing conversation has centered on what states, counties, developers, and lenders can do to make projects work. But this summer, the federal government reentered the debate in a significant way.
In Episode 12, Dom and Terry sit down with Congressman Johnny “Johnny O” Olszewski, Jr. to unpack the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act and what a renewed federal focus on housing could mean for counties. Drawing on Johnny O’s experience at the local, state, and now federal levels, the conversation looks at the legislation through a distinctly county lens: what tools it could provide, what it means for local authority, and how Washington fits into a housing challenge that ultimately plays out community by community.
Listen in to learn what’s in the bill, what it could mean for Maryland’s counties, and where the federal government fits into the housing solutions ahead.
