Jesse Coburn covers housing, transportation, cities and infrastructure.

I’m tracking how the Trump administration reshapes policy at the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Department of Transportation. My main focus is how these changes affect people who depend on those agencies for their safety or well-being, such as public housing residents, victims of housing discrimination and commuters of all types.
The topics that I’m looking into include highway expansions, restrictive zoning laws, the affordable housing shortage and the companies profiting from it, and the country's high rate of traffic injuries and deaths.
