美国住房与城市发展部部长斯科特·特纳称，拜登时代的边境危机推高了住房成本，特朗普政府正致力于让购房变得更负担得起。
独家报道： 美国住房与城市发展部部长斯科特·特纳表示，特朗普政府正致力于抵消他所称的由乔·拜登“开放边境”政策引发的住房成本飙升问题。
周四在大美国州博览会上接受福克斯新闻数字频道独家采访时，特纳强调唐纳德·特朗普总统团队正在推行各项政策以改善住房负担能力——这是中期选举的关键议题，并扭转此前任内非法移民涌入导致的房价和租金暴涨局面。
共和党方面主张，他们的政策议程将通过削减监管、增加住房供应以及打击非法移民来降低房价和租金。

“我们与特朗普总统刚上台时，边境完全开放，我国境内已有数千万非法移民，”特纳说道，他认为非法移民带来的住房需求增长推高了美国公民的生活成本。
达拉斯联邦储备银行近期的一份工作论文得出了类似结论，估计非法移民工人每增加1%，房价就会上涨约2.2%，租金上涨1.4%。
特纳表示，除了放松监管、扩大抵押贷款信贷以及消除新建筑施工壁垒之外，减少非法移民是缓解住房需求的关键举措。

他还表示，在当前持续的住房负担能力危机背景下，特朗普政府的移民打击行动是总统为美国家庭降低生活成本整体努力的重要组成部分。
“在美国，我们优先考虑的只有美国民众。美国房子是给美国人的，”特纳说道。

当被问及美国人何时能期待住房成本下降时，特纳称政府已经在采取措施提升住房负担能力。
“我认为存在一种误解，以为这不是优先事项。但这绝对是头等大事，”特纳说。
一个隐藏在明处的问题正阻碍美国人购房
特纳以特朗普签署的两项行政令作为证据，这两项政令共同致力于消除保障性住房建设的监管壁垒、扩大抵押贷款信贷获取渠道并增加住房供应。
这位住房与城市发展部部长表示，政府还在放松拜登政府时期出台的监管规定和“官僚繁文缛节”，以降低建筑成本并刺激更多住房建设。

“我们目前正在做的就是放宽监管环境，降低成本，增加供应，这样建筑商才能建房，购房者才能买房，”他说道，将这些举措描述为让美国家庭能够负担得起购房的关键。

‘American houses are for American people’: Trump housing chief insists immigration crackdown will lower costs
HUD Secretary Scott Turner says rolling back regulation and expanding mortgage credit will boost housing supply

Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Scott Turner says the Biden-era border crisis drove up housing costs as the Trump administration works to make homeownership more affordable.
EXCLUSIVE: Housing and Urban Development Secretary Scott Turner said the Trump administration is working to counteract the housing cost surges that he said resulted from Joe Biden’s open border policies.
Speaking exclusively with Fox News Digital from the Great American State Fair on Thursday, Turner insisted President Donald Trump’s team is pursuing policies to improve affordability, a key midterm issue, and bring down home price and rent cost spikes that correlated with the influx of illegal immigration under the previous administration.
Republicans have argued their agenda will bring down home prices and rents by cutting regulations, increasing housing supply and cracking down on illegal immigration.

“When we first came in with President Trump, we had open borders. We had tens of millions of illegals in our country,” Turner said, arguing that increased housing demand from unauthorized immigration drove up costs for American citizens.
A recent Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas working paper reached a similar conclusion, estimating that every 1% increase in unauthorized immigrant workers was associated with a roughly 2.2% increase in home prices and a 1.4% increase in rents.
Turner said that beyond rolling back regulations, expanding mortgage credit and removing barriers to new construction, reducing illegal immigration is key to helping ease demand for housing.

He also said the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown is a key part of the president’s broader effort to reduce costs for American families amid an ongoing affordability crisis.
“Here in America, we prioritize American people and American people only. American houses are for American people,” Turner said.

Asked when Americans can expect to see lower housing costs, Turner argued the administration is already taking steps to make housing more affordable.
“I think there is a misperception that this is not a priority. It is of utmost priority,” Turner said.
A PROBLEM HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT IS KEEPING AMERICANS FROM BUYING HOMES
As evidence, Turner pointed to two executive orders Trump signed that together work to remove regulatory barriers to affordable housing construction, expand access to mortgage credit and increase housing supply.

The HUD Secretary said the administration is also rolling back regulations and “bureaucratic red tape” put in place under the Biden administration to lower construction costs and spur more homebuilding.

“That’s what we’re doing now, we are easing the regulatory environment, bringing the cost down, raising the supply so builders can build and homeowners can buy,” he said, describing those efforts as key to making homeownership more affordable for American families.
