Outreach to the Administration and Congress
NAHB’s efforts to address lumber price and supply issues include ongoing outreach to the White House, federal agencies and Congress. When prices began their historic rise in August 2020, NAHB reached out extensively to the Trump Administration, members of Congress and to lumber mills calling for prompt action to address supply shortages that were harming small businesses, home builders and ultimately, the overall economy.
With the new Biden Administration and Congress in place, NAHB is redoubling its efforts to develop short- and long-term solutions to the lumber crisis.
