Institute for Justice-The Housing Crisis Has a Zoning Problem
The U.S. has a severe housing shortage.
There is a gap of 4 million homes between what’s needed and what’s available.
We simply need more housing, but bad zoning laws are standing in the way.
The Institute for Justice’s Zoning Justice Project aims to protect and promote the freedom to use property.
For more than a century, the freedom to use property has been eroded through abusive zoning practices that disregard individual liberty and emphasize top-down planning over property rights. Those property rights have been further denigrated by the courts, where property owners have found little comfort from all but the most abusive zoning practices.
Identifying these problems is the beginning. IJ’s Zoning Justice Project offers solutions.
