Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would change the law that governs the annual report of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Each annual report would have to identify significant regulatory barriers to affordable housing, using the definition already found in a 1992 housing law. The report would also have to include a discussion and analysis of how to reduce or remove those barriers.
