Every Massachusetts family deserves the dignity of a safe, stable, and affordable home. We need an all-hands-on-deck response to the most urgent affordability crisis of our time—investing in new housing, supporting first-time homebuyers, and keeping people in their homes.

Massachusetts is 40 years behind on housing development and the goal is to build more 220,000 units by 2035. Our Commonwealth is growing, but we don’t have the housing supply to meet the need.

In Congress, Tram will work to:

• Significantly expand funding for deeply affordable housing and rental assistance,

• Increase the affordable housing supply,

• Enforce fair housing laws,

• Eliminate unnecessary tariffs on building supplies,

• Incentivize zoning reform that promotes equity and affordability, and

• Invest in energy efficient, climate resilient housing that lowers costs for families.
