The @IowaBizCouncil applauds Congress for passing the bipartisan 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act. A strong economy requires a strong housing market.
We commend Congress, especially members of the Iowa delegation, for coming together on a solution that recognizes the direct connection between housing, workforce growth, and economic opportunity.
This legislation is an important step toward building the housing inventory needed to support Iowa’s future prosperity. @ZachNunn @RepAshleyHinson @RepMMM @RepFeenstra @ChuckGrassley @SenJoniErnst
