Housing for America’s Middle Class Act of 2026

This bill directs the Comptroller General to conduct a comprehensive study on housing affordability challenges facing middle-income American families. The report will identify specific geographic areas where housing is most unaffordable for these households and examine existing federal programs that currently exclude middle-income families from benefits available to lower-income groups. Additionally, the study will analyze how to define workforce housing based on income parameters and provide recommendations for expanding federal housing assistance to include middle-income households. The legislation focuses on gathering data and making policy recommendations rather than implementing immediate changes to housing programs.
