Plain-English Summary

This bill would require the federal government to create and maintain public databases showing what land is owned by federal, state, and local governments, making it easier for developers, cities, and the public to identify available properties for housing and community projects. By making government land ownership transparent and accessible online, the legislation aims to help address housing shortages by streamlining the process of finding and developing publicly owned land for affordable housing and other community needs.
