Section 901 is a major legislative flaw nobody asked for. The rest is the strongest pro-housing package in a generation — funding tied to production, manufactured housing, opportunity zones. We hav...
30% increase in housing stock, followed by a median $250 drop in rent. This is what’s possible when we build, and why it’s so important that we make it easier to build now so we’re not left behind...
I want to use AI to innovate: cure cancer, speed up science, & build more. But as AI makes cyberattacks easier, we need defensive innovation to protect our grid & critical infrastructure. A...
These shocking stories do more than illustrate how red tape drives rising prices. People lose trust in gov’t when unfindable salamanders are killing energy projects. Grateful for @JoinFAI & ot...
We just sent four people further into space than we ever had before. That project started in 2017. The California High Speed Rail project started in 2015 and we only have a massive construction m...
You can't make this stuff up. The environmental review process was supposed to protect nature. Instead, it flooded communities with sewage. Talk about a bureaucratic permitting failure.
Very exciting new tool that underscores how expensive utilities have gotten. If Congress does its job, we should be able to look at this map a year from now and see a lot more green!
BREAKING: The Build America Caucus has received all necessary permits to tweet this message. Review took 14 months. Happy #AprilFools 🏗️ (This is why we need permitting reform.)
Here’s something you won’t hear a lot of Democrats say: nuclear energy is something that the Trump Admin is getting right and California is getting wrong. We need more affordable energy, not less...
We’re at an inflection point in our literacy crisis. States are proving that investments in the science of reading work. Congress needs to join the fight. Thank you @NationalParents & the Geor...
It’s insane that it can take longer to permit a transmission project than to build it, not to mention the yearslong connectivity backlog. Addressing rising energy costs doesn’t just mean more ene...
AI offers a massive opportunity to accelerate drug discovery, bring down costs, & even cure cancer — but only if we give researchers the tools to use it. That’s why I’m pushing for a new AI c...
Geothermal is affordable, renewable, and one of our best tools for securing American energy dominance. But years of red tape is standing in the way. @RepMaloyUtah and I held a panel with @TimMLat...
American science is losing its edge because we don’t take the bold bets necessary for modern breakthroughs. Spoke with @NIHDirector_Jay about new opportunities to accelerate scientific innovation: ...
What we need now is for both chambers to come together to further enhance this bill and pass a deal that comprehensively makes it easier to build in America again. Our families are counting on us ...
Since then, we’ve grown to more than 40 members and have been working around the clock and across the aisle to get a housing deal across the finish line. And despite these concerns, I’m optimistic...
This is exactly the kind of challenge that the bipartisan Build America Caucus was made to solve. Last May, we launched this bipartisan coalition with the singular goal of unlocking America’s ful...
We should be able to responsibly address institutional investment without shrinking affordable housing options. And we should be able to bring back smart policies that will help drive a long-lasti...
The bill is also missing important provisions that have broad bipartisan support: Measures requiring HUD to publish guidelines for state and local zoning and land-use policies have been cut out. ...
The concern about investor ownership is understandable. But the main impact of this provision will be to reduce housing supply. That undermines so much of what this bill is trying to achieve.
