About the Panel Discussion:

Rents and home prices have climbed faster than paychecks across Colorado, and this summer Congress passed the biggest new federal housing law in a generation aimed at turning that around. The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act rewards states and cities willing to clear away the rules that make it slower and more expensive to build homes. Colorado has spent the past few years doing exactly that, but more work remains to make housing affordable across the state. Join state, local and national housing leaders for a conversation about what the new law could mean for the cost of housing here, and what other states can learn from Colorado’s head start.

• Maria De Cambra, Executive Director, Colorado Department of Local Affairs (DOLA)
