HR 6552 United States House · 118th Congress

Housing for America’s Middle Class Act of 2023

HR 6552, the Housing for America’s Middle Class Act of 2023, requires the Comptroller General to produce a report within 180 days of enactment. The report must identify housing affordability challenges for middle-income homeowners and renters, including geographic hotspots, and examine why current federal housing programs (like tax credits and grants) exclude this group. It also needs to analyze gaps in program access, propose a clear "workforce housing" definition based on income, and assess how this definition could expand incentives for affordable housing development. This bill does not create new funding or programs but aims to inform future policy changes by documenting the exclusion of middle-income households from existing housing support.
