Homeownership is increasingly viewed as an unattainable dream for young Americans, prompting mayors nationwide to promote pro-housing policies. The Let America Build campaign aims to eliminate regulatory barriers and reform zoning to accelerate housing development. The campaign emphasizes using underutilized federal land for residential purposes. With a current shortfall of nearly four million homes, supporting organizations like Realtor.com and the National Association of Home Builders underscore the need for local action to enhance affordability and housing supply. The movement began at SXSW and has seen growing endorsement from mayors and housing leaders.
