ROAD to Housing Act

Housing Bill Could Boost Community Land Trusts

September 18, 2026 Doug Ryan and Tiana Patterson, Grassroots Economic Organizing. , , ,
On July 11, the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act became law. The effects of the law, which comprises 47 components, including program reauthorization, new authorities, requirements for cabinet agency rulemaking, reporting, and interagency cooperation, largely depend on executive branch actions. More precisely, ROAD includes some provisions that are self-executing, others that require guidance by a certain date, and others for which HUD has some flexibility. That said, even though it is not fully clear how the law’s provisions will be implemented, community members, as well as local and state governments, should prepare now for the opportunities ahead to advance their goals of developing and preserving more housing.

Congress Finally Passed A Housing Bill; It Isn’t Enough

On July 11, 2026, the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act became law, making it the most significant federal housing package enacted in more than three decades. Many are celebrating the bill for “simply existing”. However, for many working-class tenants, the bill is not enough. The 21st Century Renewing Opportunity in the American Dream, or ROAD, to Housing Act contains more than 60 provisions covering housing construction, manufactured and rural housing, homeownership, rental housing, veterans’ housing, federal program reform, and community banking. Its central strategy is to increase the housing supply by reducing regulatory barriers and encouraging state and local governments to allow more construction.
