NC HB 765 fast-tracks development for big developers—but could widen the housing gap, harm low-income communities, and empower NIMBY voices to block equity. Our Executive Director Laurie Ingram breaks it down. Read more: www.anchornc.org/post/nc-hb-7...

NC HB 765 Falls Short in Saving the American Dream

NC HB 765 isn’t how to close the housing gap. We need policies that balance speed with fairness and density with affordability. Otherwise, we’ll deepen the very crisis we’re trying to solve.
