Standing Up Against Rising Housing Costs

Congresswoman Sykes spoke on the House floor to stand up against rising housing costs. Families in Ohio’s 13th Congressional District and across the country are seeing housing costs rise faster than wages, making it harder to keep a roof over their heads. Last year, Congresswoman Sykes introduced the HOMES Act, which cracks down on investors buying 50 or more single-family homes, shines a light on corporate ownership and rental practices, and makes sure local families, not profit-seeking investors, get first access to homeownership.
