The bill directs HUD to study how the Build America, Buy America Act applies to the HOME Investment Partnerships Program, which funds affordable housing construction and repairs. HUD must complete a review within 180 days, issue clarified guidance within 90 days after that, and report to Congress within 270 days total.
State and local housing agencies, nonprofit housing developers, and contractors using HOME funds are directly affected. Low-income renters and homebuyers relying on HOME-funded housing may be indirectly affected.
Current rules on which materials qualify as American-made are reportedly unclear, and this review is meant to produce more consistent guidance without changing funding or housing policy itself.
