At the Western Conservative Summit, we sit down with Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson to discuss affordable housing and opportunity zones. According to Sec. Carson, obsolete regulations are blocking innovation in affordable housing and preventing many Americans from getting a home. We also touch on the issue of homelessness, especially among veterans.
