Andrew Yang: Relaxing zoning laws would boost affordable housing

Yang rolled out a policy brief on zoning that calls for loosening restrictions on the construction of more homes in the country's most productive cities. "Housing is eating up more and more Americans' budgets and making it impossible to get ahead," said Yang. "If we relaxed zoning laws in certain areas it would enhance productivity and allow us to create many more affordable housing options."
