It is unclear, however, how the White House would use the powers given to it by the declaration of an emergency. Among the moves already proposed by the Trump administration to improve the situation and boost supply are the use of federal land for building new homes and the elimination of regulations hindering new construction.

“The best ways the administration could make an impact are by encouraging the building and purchase of homes. Overriding, or at least standardizing, local laws on zoning would be a great step toward allowing builders to deliver the inventory needed by the American people in the places where it is needed,” Berner said.

Here we go. If he attempts to meddle with local control, he will basically be enforcing Obama’s AFFH Act and Agenda 2030, both LEFT WING positions that claim ‘zoning’ is to blame for unaffordable housing. He has no right to do this. This movement is destroying our family neighborhoods in places like CA and NH already, where legislation has been passed to outlaw single-family neighborhoods..

Maybe he should not have put tariffs on building materials from Canada and Mexico which raised prices for supplies, or deported all the temporary workers? You think?
