Proclamation 11036 is a presidential proclamation signed June 12, 2026, designating June 2026 as National Homeownership Month. It is a formal symbolic declaration that also summarizes housing-related executive actions the administration says it has already taken or intends to pursue.
The proclamation itself does not create new law or binding rules — it designates the month and recaps prior actions. Those referenced actions include a day-one Executive Order directing federal agencies to reduce housing costs, a directive for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to purchase $200 billion in mortgage-backed securities to push down borrowing costs, and a separate Executive Order (“Stopping Wall Street from Competing with Main Street Homebuyers”) that bans large institutional investors from buying single-family homes and directs antitrust enforcement against corporate rent manipulation. The proclamation also calls on Congress to pass the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, described as comprehensive housing legislation, though that bill is not enacted by this document.
Prospective homebuyers and current homeowners are the stated beneficiaries, as the referenced policies aim to increase housing supply, lower mortgage rates, and limit corporate competition for single-family homes. Large institutional investors in residential real estate are directly constrained by the referenced executive order. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, as government-sponsored enterprises, are directed to deploy the $200 billion mortgage-backed securities purchase program.
