steil: mind too. it is one of the big frustrations i have here is we only look at increasing demand-side money, spending taxpayer dollars from all across the nation and really not addressing the supply-side issue in some of our biggest democratic-run cities. you share that frustration it sounds like, ms. hamilton. dr. hamilton: i do. rep. steil: could you maybe add a little more color what we'd be doing on the zoning side? >> i would support a flexible grant program. with freedoms on what they sent, it's for defensible purposes. because the purpose of the grant is to encourage regulatory reform. not the specific programmatic outcome. >> mister chairman i appreciate you holding today's hearing and i will come back. >> let me just make a correction, for the record. in 2019 be published a three year investigation on long island. -- you use of hidden cameras, or for real estate agents. it's one of the housing -- and it confirmed -- by assuring nearly 24%, through house listings, the heady your mark of --

steil: mind too. it is one of the big frustrations i have here is we only look at increasing demand-side money, spending taxpayer dollars from all across the nation and really not addressing the supply-side issue in some of our biggest democratic-run cities. you share that frustration it sounds like, ms. hamilton. dr. hamilton: i do. rep. steil: could you maybe add a little more color on what we could be doing on the zoning side as a results to this government funding? dr. hamilton: i would support a flexible grant program that gives local policymakers a wide freedom in what they spend grant 20 on because the purpose of these grants is to encourage regulatory funds. dr. hamilton: mr. chairman, i will yield back. rep. cleaver: thank you to the gentleman. let me make a correction for record. in 2019 newsday published the long island divided series, it was a three year investigation into racial discrimination homebuying on long island and they deployed actors to conduct testing which involved the use of

griff: congressman bryan steil, we'll see you when we have the next bill. molly: on the other side of the aisle we bring in democratic congress woman, thank you for joining us on this saturday afternoon. we appreciate it. >> of course, happy to be here with you. let's talk about that infrastructure bill. it took a while to get it over the finish line and now it's gotten there in the late night vote and the president holding the press conference today. your colleague from the other side of the aisle called it a radical expansion of the federal government, that from the republican of wisconsin. your thoughts as it's just passed? >> there is absolutely nothing radical about investment in infrastructure. infrastructure has long been a bipartisan priority. it's been voted on in the house and the senate. and getting an infrastructure bill done and getting an investment of infrastructure of this size was the goal of president trump. but it took president biden to get it done and families across the country are going to see the benefit in new roads and bridges and
