Jeffrey Mosher welcomes back Linda Little, President & CEO, NSO, Detroit's Neighborhood Service Organization, Detroit, MI. Affordable housing is often discussed as a social issue, but it also has major economic implications. From a business perspective, why should employers, developers, and community leaders be paying close attention to this conversation? Detroit and Southeast Michigan continue to attract investment and redevelopment projects. How important is housing availability and affordability to sustaining that economic growth and attracting talent? The summit brings together developers, nonprofits, educators, policymakers, and business leaders. What are some of the most promising partnerships or collaborative approaches that can help increase housing supply while keeping it affordable? Many organizations are struggling with rising construction costs, financing challenges, and limited housing inventory. What practical solutions do you expect summit participants to discuss for overcoming those barriers? Looking ahead, what would success look like coming out of this summit, and what actions can the business community take to help create more housing opportunities across Detroit and Southeast Michigan? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Watch MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/ WCCCD, NSO Hosting Hometown Summit: A Vision For Affordable Housing, July 1 in Detroit Featuring keynote from former HUD Secretary Marcia L.

LAREDO, Texas - U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar says he intends to bring at least four cabinet secretaries to the South Texas border region once President-elect Biden is sworn into office.Cuellar is critical of the way President Trump’s cabinet secretaries, when visiting the border region, would not meet with the business community or environmental leaders. Instead, he said, they only focused on the border wall, and stopping drugs and undocumented immigrants from coming into the country.The five cabinet secretaries are Deb Haaland, Biden’s pick for interior secretary, Xavier Becerra, who is set to be health and human services secretary, Marcia L. Fudge, who has been chosen to run housing and urban development, and Alejandro Mayorkas, the president-elect’s nominee to run homeland security.All four will need to be confirmed by the U.S. Senate.“There are some friends I intend to bring down here. Deb Haaland is going to be the new interior secretary. She is a friend of mine from New Mexico. I want to see how she can work with us, from the Department of Interior,” Cuellar said.“We have got Xavier Becerra, who is going to be the health and human services secretary. That is the second person I want to bring down to Laredo. Marcia Fudge, also, is someone that I served with and she is the HUD secretary. Those are the folks that are coming in.”Mayorkas, the son of Jewish Cuban refugees, would be the first Latino to run the department of homeland security. “The new homeland secretary is a friend of mine. I intend to bring him down to Laredo and to the Valley and do a border tour,” Cuellar said.“They usually go to El Paso and down to the lower Rio Grande or Arizona. I want them to see different areas, including Eagle Pass and other areas that have asked me to look at.”Editor's Note: To read the full story go to www.riograndeguardian.com

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, in an unmistakable show of political strength Tuesday, cut a deal to sideline a potential challenger, won new confidence from her party’s resurgent left flank and earned high praise from her party’s most influential figure, former president Barack Obama. Together, the developments buoyed Pelosi as she fights to repel a small group of challengers inside the Democratic caucus who want to force a leadership shake-up after 16 years with the Californian at the helm. One of them was Rep. Marcia L. Fudge (D-Ohio), who left Washington last week planning to take the Thanksgiving holiday to ponder a run against Pelosi for speaker. But her dalliance ended Tuesday, when Fudge said she would support Pelosi after the minority leader agreed to make Fudge chairman of a resurrected subcommittee on elections and pledged that “the most loyal voting bloc in the Democratic Party, black women, will have a seat at the decision-making table.”
