Julian Zelizer : Kamala Harris and Barack Obama agree on housing shortage.

He says Democrats are trying to make it easier for more young people to buy a home.

Zelizer says the need for more homes is the closest thing to a consensus that technocrats and experts have.

But for a movement used to operating in local town halls, this newfound attention can be disconcerting.

Democrats are comfortable in the world of demand-side policies, but the housing crisis is fundamentally a supply-side problem.

Reorienting local governments toward building rather than slowing down development takes more than time.

The biggest obstacle facing the pro-housing movement is that many of the legislative victories have yet to translate into significantly more homes being built.
