America suffers from a housing shortage for many reasons, such as persistent inflation and an unsteady job market.
But, lawmakers in Concord can ease New Hampshire’s housing crisis by:
- Providing financial incentives for towns to review and change restrictive zoning laws.
- Providing tax incentives for qualified tradespeople to offer apprenticeship programs.
- Providing newly-qualified journeyman tradespeople with free community college business courses, to give them the best chance of operating their businesses successfully.
- Expanding Capital Access Program (CAP) grants and loans to allow smaller builders to compete with large developers.
