The Congressional Yes In My Back Yard (YIMBY) Caucus is a bipartisan US congressional caucus founded in November 2024. The members of the Congressional YIMBY Caucus support increasing the housing supply through tax incentives and deregulation.
The Congressional YIMBY Caucus was founded in the aftermath of the 2024 United States presidential election, amid growing national concern over housing affordability. A Pew Research Center survey conducted during the campaign found that 69% of US adults were "very concerned" about the cost of housing, an increase from 60% in 2022.
The caucus officially launched on November 21, 2024 at an event attended by the founding co-chairs as well as leaders of several outside organizations. These included non-profits focused on affordable housing, public transportation, climate resilience, and social equity, as well as trade groups representing landlords, tenants, and mortgage bankers.
As of March 20, 2025, the Congressional YIMBY Caucus has 33 members, all in the House of Representatives. These members are majority Democratic, though the co-chairs split evenly between Democrats and Republicans.
Although the Congressional YIMBY Caucus has yet to introduce or endorse its own legislation, several of its members have introduced bills to address housing shortages and increase the housing supply.
