The ROAD to Housing Act will help our country increase housing supply. This legislation includes my Streamlining Rural Housing Act, which will specifically increase housing supply in rural parts of Nebraska. This legislation is commonsense and bipartisan. It should be signed into law.

Ricketts said the ROAD to Housing Act and his Streamlining Rural Housing Act would increase housing supply, including in rural Nebraska, and called for the legislation to be signed into law after Senate passage.

The promised federal outcome was enactment of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, including the Streamlining Rural Housing Act. GovInfo shows H.R. 6644 became Public Law 119-101 on July 11, 2026, during Ricketts's current Senate term. Ricketts also took direct official action by voting yea on Senate passage and had supported the rural housing component through S.2423. Because the relevant act became law during his term and his support is documented, this counts as delivered with same_term timing.

The promised outcome was enactment of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, including the Streamlining Rural Housing Act. As of the current federal record, the ROAD to Housing Act remained introduced/on the Senate calendar, the House counterpart had passed only the House, and the standalone Streamlining Rural Housing Act remained introduced and referred to committee. Ricketts did take a serious legislative step by joining the introduction of the standalone Streamlining Rural Housing Act, a named component of the promise, but the enactment outcome had not occurred during his current Senate term.
