| I was able to join Fox Cities Habitat and several other State Legislators at the future home of Habitat homebuyer, Dawn Buelow. Together, we discussed the challenges hardworking local families face in finding decent and affordable homes. This is a bi-partisan issue and it is really important that we support our community members towards home ownership. This issue is bigger than any one industry can solve. Solutions must include new ideas and deep levels of collaboration between community members, non-profits, builders, businesses, and government leaders. | |
