Defender of Housing Award

The NAHB Defender of Housing Award recognizes courageous federal legislators who have demonstrated strong support for housing and NAHB positions on key issues facing the industry. The award, fashioned in the likeness of a traditional house key, is awarded biannually.

The 2020 nomination period for the 116th Congress is now open. HBAs are encouraged to consider the contributions their legislators have made in support of home building, remodeling, and development, and submit an application on their behalf.

Congratulations to all of the 2018 award recipients.
