To help our members stay on top of the ever-evolving political landscape, MHI has collaborated with National Journal to provide timely, topical summaries of recent headline items. Two new slide decks are available to MHI members. The first covers the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee and explores the major moments, ongoing issues, and news from the RNC. The second reviews President Biden’s decision to drop his re-election and bid and discusses the implications for the Democratic Party. In addition to these resources, MHI continues to monitor news outlets for useful articles for its members, such as this HousingWire piece on the impact of a Kamala Harris presidency on housing.
