John McLean has just announced he is running for LD17 State Senate. If you live in LD17 help him get on the ballot so he can beat Wadsack by signing his nomination petition online at apps.azsos.gov/equal/

Here’s the not hot take. The lawsuit is frivolous and silly but that’s not that different than many lawsuits brought by AGs and federal agencies these days. Not anything new here. But what really bothers me is the comms around this lawsuit. “Why is the rent so damn high.”

I’m dying 😂. This is no different then Trump and his deep state conspiracy. “If you’re not with us, you must have a financial interest at stake.” This is a dem consultant who helps moderate dems win swing races and he’s the one feeding the populist conspiracies. Wild times!

Proving my point again. You’re a dem consultant who helps moderate dems win over swing voters and you can’t fathom that I have a friendship with someone who is no longer a dem? And even worse, someone who speaks to the voters we need to pick up this election. Wild man. I would

A few thoughts on the BLS release on OER reweighting. 🧵 (1) It makes it pretty clear, imo, that the Jan rent-OER divergence was largely noise. The +5% wght on 1-fam detached homes isn't nearly enough to account for a 0.2pp rent-OER gap. (2) There is no lingering shock for 6m⬇️

Inflation when real time rents are taken into account. Time for cuts! 💪 📉

Here is the exact reaction and media coverage I was talking about. Politicians are leaders and when they tell you all your problems are caused by someone trying to screw you over you listen and get mad and our society gets further divided and further from solving these real

I agree with this statement, but disagree that the real page software does this. Most importantly though I disagree with the rhetoric you’re pushing in the AGs office. If real page stops using this software and rents come down 10% to 15% right after, I will be happy to say I was

😂 you guys literally gerrymandered LD17

You just described the literally definition of gerrymandering. Manipulating the boundaries of a district for a specific party outcome/control. 🤷‍♂️

Julia Coronado Was it me or do some lawmakers seem confused about OER. There seemed to be an undercurrent to one or two questions that implied OER overstates housing inflation because it incorporates/reflects (rising) interest expenses when the whole reason for using OER is it does not do this.

This looks like such a strange risk/reward deal for the county. Risk: Pima County appears to have indirectly guaranteed the bonds through revenue and lease structure. Reward: Pima County gets paid last, after the developer has taken out all development fees and managment fees.

This! 🔥 🔥 🔥

Not sure people realize how impossible it is to build new multifamily right now because of rates. This won’t break ground until the 10 year treasury is sub 3.5% and maybe even sub 3%. No new construction in 2024 and maybe 2025 meaning there’s a potential for a huge multi housing

This is Powell telling Kashkari to chill 😂

Rep. Rachel Jones introduced a resolution to award Trump Arizona's 11 electoral votes before the election even happens. Meet Kevin Volk, the candidate challenging Rep. Jones. He's running to restore real leadership to LD17, and uphold our democracy. tucson.com/opinion/column…

Translation: I am such an ineffective legislator I was not included in the budget negotiations. I am so unproductive at governing, even my own party refused to court my vote. Now my district loses out in funding because I am not good at my job.
