house 02/27/2025 - 119th Congress
We're working to ensure that Puerto Rican families have the same access to low-income housing opportunities as those on the mainland. By aligning the poverty guidelines used for housing assistance in Puerto Rico with those of the contiguous United States, our proposed legislation aims to offer fairer housing support and improve living conditions for the most vulnerable citizens in Puerto Rico.

It's a decent start, but will it actually tackle Puerto Rico's complex housing issues?
