Bill 118 sconres 27, also known as Randy's Resolution, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The bill aims to address the issue of affordable housing in low-income communities by providing funding for the construction of new affordable housing units.

The resolution was introduced by Senator Randy Johnson and has garnered bipartisan support in both the House and the Senate. If passed, the bill would allocate $500 million in federal funding to be distributed to states and local governments for the development of affordable housing projects.
