The main purpose of this legislation, known as the "Freeing Residential Affordable Markets from Excess Regulation Act" or the "FRAMER Act," is to encourage states to avoid implementing expensive and overly strict energy codes for housing. The goal is to make housing more affordable by reducing the financial burden that these codes can impose on builders and, ultimately, homebuyers. Key provisions of the FRAMER Act include a requirement for states to provide financial payments to builders of residential units located in designated opportunity zones.
