**Busting Zoning Barriers to Reclaim the American Dream**
In a bold move to address the escalating housing crisis in America, economist Steve Moore has proposed significant reforms aimed at making homeownership once again attainable for millions of hard-working Americans.
During a recent segment on CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” Moore highlighted the detrimental role local and state zoning restrictions play in exacerbating housing prices.
By advocating for the elimination of these regulations, he emphasized the potential for increased housing supply.
This initiative aligns perfectly with the vision set forth by President Donald Trump, who indicated that housing affordability will be a cornerstone of his agenda in 2026.
As the American dream of owning a home slips further from reach for many, especially younger generations, such reforms could be pivotal.
Data from the National Association of Realtors revealed that the median age of first-time homebuyers has now soared to 40, marking an all-time high.
Moore underscored the importance of addressing restrictive zoning laws, often deemed "red tape," that limit housing availability and inflate prices.
While some argue that these restrictions help maintain neighborhood quality, the economics are clear: fewer homes available means rising costs, making homeownership unattainable for growing families and young professionals.
As the housing market recently showed signs of life, with pending home sales jumping to their highest level in 33 months, it is clear that the demand for affordable housing is surging.
The trend could signal a path towards recovery, but it requires decisive action to eliminate bureaucratic hurdles that impede growth.
Trump's administration has previously indicated that regulatory changes would expedite home construction and incentivize states to lift zoning barriers.
As we look ahead, it becomes increasingly evident that embracing a pro-growth, pro-homeownership approach will not only invigorate the housing market but also rekindle the aspirations of countless Americans longing for stability and investment in their future.
With forward-thinking policies and a commitment to breaking down the walls of red tape, the dream of homeownership might soon become a reality for many who have felt left behind.
The question remains: will lawmakers take up this crucial challenge, or will they allow the mechanisms of bureaucracy to stifle prosperity once again?
Now is the time for action, and the potential rewards are clear—more homes built, more families thriving, and the revival of the American dream.
