BPC’s Housing Commission Sounds Promising…

The DC-based think tank Bipartisan Policy Center announced the full member roster of its housing commission last week. The announcement comes two months after former HUD secretaries Henry Cisneros and Mel Martinez, and former senators Kit Bond and George Mitchell were named to lead the commission.

The commission, designed to address the future of housing policy, is supported by a grant from the John D and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, and is slated to host a series of regional forums throughout 2012. We’ll check in with progress and feedback as the commission’s work progresses.
