How are states in the Rocky Mountains trying to address their housing issues?

A bipartisan bill to address housing shortages in rural and mountain communities was introduced by Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO), Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT), and U.S. Representative Joe Neguse (D-CO) on Friday.

The Forest Service Flexible Housing Partnerships Act was introduced to allow the United States Forest Service to lease underutilized sites to address local needs. Affordable housing is one of the needs the USFS would be able to address under the new act.

“The American West faces a housing crisis, and our mountain and rural communities are at the center of it. When Colorado’s teachers, firefighters, police, and nurses can no longer afford to live where they work, we need to use every tool we can to fix this problem,” said Bennet. “This bill will build on our efforts in the 2018 Farm Bill to help communities and the Forest Service work together to build more affordable housing.”
