Senator Hassan Highlights Bipartisan ROAD to Housing Bill & Need to Lower Housing Costs at Events Across New Hampshire NEW HAMPSHIRE – U.S. Senator Maggie Hassan highlighted the bipartisan 21 st Century ROAD to Housing Act at events in Londonderry and Keene this week, underscoring how the bill will help reduce hosting costs for New Hampshire families. “To lower housing costs for families, we need to build more housing. Developments like the Village at Technology Hill and the Roosevelt East Apartments will help more Granite Staters find an affordable place to live and stay in New Hampshire,” said Senator Hassan. “The bipartisan 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act that I fought for will help more communities build homes like these, and I look forward to it becoming law at midnight— despite President Trump’s tantrum about it.” In Londonderry, the Senator spoke at a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Village at Technology Hill, a new middle-class family housing development that will add 400 new units when completed. In Keene, Senator Hassan toured the Roosevelt East Apartments, a newly opened apartment complex built on the site of a former school. The project was funded using the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit that Senator Hassan worked to expand . At both events, Senator Hassan discussed the bipartisan 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act , a major legislative package pushed by Senator Hassan. Despite passing with overwhelming bipartisan support, President Trump repeatedly refused to sign the bill in order to strongarm Congress into passing the SAVE Act , legislation that would make it harder for eligible Americans to vote. Unless the president vetoes the bill, it will automatically become law at midnight tonight.
