Biden Proposes New Housing Tax Credits But Faces Uphill Battle for Passage
- Biden proposed new tax credits and policies aimed at lowering housing costs, but expert says none of those tax proposals will pass Congress
- There is a major housing shortage in the U.S., around 4 million units, so we need more supply rather than measures to simply boost demand
- The proposals are politically motivated to draw contrast with Trump rather than legislative achievements
- Biden attacking 'junk fees' could lead to administrative action, which investors should watch
- The speech signals the start of the 2024 general election, with Biden aiming to contrast himself from Trump to attract key voters
