FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: June 23, 2026 | CONTACT: Olivia Porcaro 202-225-6165
Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressman Tom Cole (OK-04) released the following statement after voting in favor of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act:
“Thanks to Bidenflation and far-Left overspending, housing costs in this country have soared over the years. At the same time, unnecessary red tape has limited our housing supply, allowing demand to outpace it,” said Congressman Cole. “I voted in favor of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act tonight to address these exact housing crises. This legislation will expand the housing supply of all types of homes, including single-family, multifamily, apartment complexes, and other factory-built housing. Additionally, it will reduce burdensome regulatory barriers to new home construction, modernize HUD programs, and allow banks to deploy funding more freely. At the end of the day, as the Congressman for Oklahomans in the Fourth District, I aim to serve as a representative for homeowners, renters, and my community. In supporting the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act tonight, I did just that, as this bill will lead to more affordable choices for Oklahomans and all Americans.”
