On the recordFebruary 4, 1997
with the help of Representatives Johnson, Lazio, English, and Weller, I have formed the Republican Housing Opportunity Caucus to highlight the importance of affordable housing to all Americans. The mission of this caucus is to give Members of Congress who are interested in housing policies an opportunity to explore every possible strategy to enhance home ownership and affordable housing, to discuss their concerns and coordinate a response. There is nothing glamorous about housing, but we all know how important it is. It is not just a roof over one's head but a place you can call home, a place of your own. There are still problems. The first-time home buyer rate remains low and many families cannot find affordable housing. This caucus can help to establish a comprehensive approach to housing needs. If my colleagues are interested in being part of this caucus, please call my office.
