On March 13, Gonzalez addressed housing affordability challenges in South Texas and promoted pending legislation: “Owning a home has always been considered part of the American dream, but it remains out of reach for far too many South Texas families. My bipartisan bill , the MORE Opportunities for Homeownership Act, would fix this. By providing credit unions the same flexibilities as small”
