In an effort spearheaded by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), 90 companies and organizations today called on the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to designate construction of single-family and multifamily housing as an "Essential Infrastructure Business."
In a joint letter to Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Jack Wolf, the 90 organizations and suppliers said that this action is urgently needed to help stabilize the housing industry and its supply chain in the near term.
