As housing affordability concerns are affecting more and more Americans, market-oriented and liberal researchers have found common ground on the need for land-use reform.

Join AEI and the Progressive Policy Institute as they develop a bipartisan housing playbook that can be deployed across cities and states, red and blue. Practitioners, legislators, and researchers from across the political spectrum will discuss recent successful reforms at the state and local level and how others can capitalize on these ideas to fix America’s housing shortage.
