.@POTUS’ executive order creates a task force to make factory-built homes higher quality and cheaper by using modern manufacturing methods, so they can qualify for federal housing programs. Today’s action will unburden our private sector from red tape — allowing them to bring much needed housing supply to market.
President Trump continues to unlock the American Dream for American families. This action will unleash our private sector, boost manufactured housing supply, and increase housing affordability across the country. Thank you, @POTUS!

President Trump just signed an executive order establishing a task force to create a whole-of-government approach to ensure our nation is modernizing Federal housing programs to accommodate for innovations in manufactured housing. @SecretaryTurner will now co-chair the Task Force on Manufactured Housing Innovation to unleash more affordable and innovative housing.
President Trump is a builder, and today he is committing to bring even more innovative and affordable housing solutions to market for the American people. The Task Force on Manufactured Housing Innovation will continue to slash red tape, unleash private sector innovation, and deliver housing affordability for American families.

After Housing First failed, Treatment First is working to end addiction and equip the homeless to live lives of self-sufficiency.

Reminder – We ended regulations that were adding over $100,000 to the cost of building homes.

We’re restoring local control and cutting the red tape that has driven up housing costs.

The failed Housing First model measured success by units filled and tax dollars spent — while the homeless perished. Under President Trump, we are focused on restoring people to lives of self-sufficiency.

Years of Housing First policies in New York have produced the same result: growing encampments that harm neighborhoods and fail the people living in them. HUD is requiring measurable outcomes and prioritizing treatment, recovery, and pathways to self-sufficiency.
The Bronx’s “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” is what a failed Housing First model looks like. Not only is it an eyesore, it also shows that permanent street living isn’t the answer. HUD is ending this status quo.

.@SecretaryTurner joined @RepMonicaDLC to mark the Disabled Veterans Housing Support Act becoming law under President Trump. No more counting disability pay against veterans who need housing help. Promises made and promises kept for the men and women who served. 🇺🇸
Great to stand with @RepMonicaDLC as we celebrate the Disabled Veterans Housing Support Act, which @POTUS signed into law. This means wounded veterans won’t have their disability benefits counted against them when they need HUD housing help. 🇺🇸

The Trump Administration is expanding housing affordability options for more American families. In South Texas, @SecretaryTurner highlighted HUD’s efforts to help more families achieve the American Dream of homeownership.

.@SecretaryTurner explains why HUD ended AFFH: The rule did not build a single home. It buried communities in paperwork. Under President Trump, we restored flexibility to localities that understand their own needs better than Washington.

📍 Edinburg, Texas @SecretaryTurner toured Jaguar Heights with @RepMonicaDLC — a public-private partnership and the area’s first community land trust pilot. This community land trust pilot is helping more families move from renting to owning while keeping homes affordable for the long term.

Apparent race-based lending practices go against everything our Founding Fathers fought for. HUD will ensure accountability for those who violate the Fair Housing Act.

Asking rent prices fall to their slowest pace in 3 years. Over 43% of listings now offer concessions.

Last week in Tampa, @SecretaryTurner took part in flag football drills with young athletes, hoping to inspire the next generation to get into sports. He shared how sports helped him off the field while building positive relationships between the youth and local police officers.

LA’s homeless system has spent years burning through massive budgets with almost nothing to show for it. Taxpayers and communities deserve better. HUD is requiring results.

In Los Angeles, Housing First has failed to address the root causes of homelessness. Unchecked encampments have hurt residents and small businesses.

The Trump Administration is expanding access to the American Dream — especially for first-time homebuyers. HUD, under the leadership of @SecretaryTurner, supported 1.5 million Americans in their journey to homeownership.
