Issue Position: Affordable Housing

Issue Position

North Carolina is facing a statewide affordable housing crisis. In our district and across the state, a large swath of our population is struggling to find housing options that fit their budget. As North Carolina's population and economy have grown, we have failed to sustain a housing stock that matches our growth. It is time that our state lawmakers recognize that this is an immense and complex problem facing our state, and it must be addressed by multiple levels of government. The state legislature needs to begin exploring ways to incentivize public-private financial incentives for affordable housing construction to make a dent in our massive gap of affordable housing.
