Democrats Clash Over 'Abundance Liberalism' and Housing

Democrats Clash Over 'Abundance Liberalism' and Housing

Some Democrats want to change how they do things by focusing on building more things like housing, this is called "abundance liberalism."

But in a rich area near Washington, people didn't like the idea of building more houses.

They worried about changes to their neighborhoods, like schools getting too crowded.

Some people thought it would make things worse, while others thought it would help.

The argument is over whether building more will really help make things more affordable or if it's just a plan to help developers make money.
