October 6, 2023 FROM YOUR STATE REP, Keith Wingfield, River Rock Builders You may not see what we actually do, but you will feel it in your markets soon! NAHB and all of the officers, state reps and national area chairman stay hard at work on the issues that affect you the most, usually working on codes, regulations and any other issue that affects the cost of housing. Remember that you elected officials are making these laws, regulations, codes, and other rule making……if you want to be a part of the process make sure that you answer every CALL TO ACTION so that your input is heard!

Moreover, your contributions to BUILD PAC help to ensure we elect the right people to vote the way we need them to...

We urge the Senate to act quickly to keep the federal government open, including the vital NFIP. And moving forward, ...

Alicia Huey, chairman of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) and a custom home builder and developer from Birmingham, Ala., today issued the following statement after the Senate passed a Congressional Review Act (CRA) joint resolution of disapproval that would rescind the Biden administration’s waters of the U.S. rule: “Today’s bipartisan Senate vote to approve a resolution that would rescind the Biden administration’s waters of the U.S. (WOTUS) rule comes shortly after House Democrats and Republicans passed an identical measure, and sends a strong message to the administration and American people about the damaging effects of federal overreach.
