Biden's democratic infestation of conservative suburbia via zoning laws
[Washington Examiner] A house with a white picket fence and a big backyard might have been a staple of the American dream once upon a time, but if the Biden administration gets its way, the dream could soon be out of reach for millions of people.

As part of his $2.3 trillion infrastructure plan, the Biden administration is pushing local governments to allow apartment buildings in neighborhoods that are restricted to single-family homes. The administration claims it's a way to ease a national affordable housing shortage and combat racial injustice in the housing market.

Current zoning laws that favor single-family homes, known as exclusionary zoning, have disproportionately hurt low-income people who can't afford to move to the suburbs, the administration said. Their only choice is living in crowded apartment buildings. Biden's proposal would incentivize local governments to get rid of exclusionary zoning by awarding grants and tax credits to cities that change their zoning regulations.

While the proposal has had some bipartisan support on Capitol Hill, not everyone is on board.

Critics claim the federal government's plan would change the landscape of towns and cities across the country and torpedo the American dream.

#5 HUD has been working towards this sh*t for years with the requirement that a portion of any new multi-family housing being built must be 'low-income' and/or Section 8 subsidized housing.

This recent little ploy will, of course, have that requirement built in.

So, instead of building their slums in the city where they belong, Biden wants them to be built in the suburbs so they can turn the suburbs into slums? How are they gonna get to work? Oh, that's right, none of these people work.

This is just more of the Democrat plan to destroy America as we know it so they can build a totalitarian socialist police state in its place.
