Description
Description | The Build America, Buy America (BABA) law requires that most materials in federally funded affordable housing projects be made in the USA. This has caused construction delays and increased costs due to difficulties in sourcing American-made materials and a slow waiver approval process by HUD. Developers report standstills and postponements in projects, including a 36-unit building in Fargo, North Dakota, and an 85-unit building in Denver. HUD is taking at least six months to approve waivers, causing bottlenecks amid the US affordable housing crisis. |
