Abigail Spanberger Unveils Plan to Lower Virginians’ Housing Costs

Last week, Abigail Spanberger announced her plan to make housing more affordable for buyers and renters in Virginia and penned an op-ed in the Richmond Times-Dispatch detailing how she will bring down housing costs for Virginians.

“No matter where I travel across Virginia — whether I’m in Richmond City or Richmond County, out in Radford, Roanoke, or down in Hampton Roads, I hear about the high cost of housing,” said Spanberger. “That’s why today, I’m laying out how my administration will, brick by brick, lay the foundation to lower housing costs for Virginians. Because whether it’s buying a home or paying the rent, we need to make Virginia housing more affordable. But I know that there is no one-size-fits-all solution to Virginia’s housing challenges. That’s why Virginians deserve real, thoughtful solutions from their Governor — solutions that will deliver results they can see in their bank accounts.”

Spanberger outlined how she will lower housing costs by working with local communities to increase the number of affordable housing options available and cutting red tape that slows down housing construction.

Spanberger recently unveiled her plan to lower health care costs for seniors and working families. This comes as the DGA announced it will make an initial $5 million investment to support her campaign for governor in Virginia.
