"The lack of affordability in the American housing stock underscores the urgent need for housing vouchers for all programs."

"The affordability crisis, it turns out, is not only bad morals, but it is also bad economics."

"We need to create more affordable housing to bridge the gap between supply and demand, but we also need to ensure that the housing we do create is affordable to the poorest Americans."
