We’re hanging out at Remnant Brewing tonight for our monthly social! Every first Friday. Find Jeff Byrnes 🚰, he’s in a navy t-shirt, light blue shorts, either in Remnant’s patio or inside at a table.
Cheers to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Tina Smith for this essay and their bill to bring a hugely powerful party back into the mix to work to solve our housing crises: the Federal Gov’t! The Feds clearing a path & funding social housing would be huge, let’s do it! nytimes.com/2024/09/18/opi…
We proudly signed our name to this brief as an affiliate of Abundant Housing Massachusetts!
“For far too long the responsibility to meet the changing housing needs of our state’s residents has fallen to a small handful of communities, while many others have used restrictive zoning and blocked the freedom of other people to move where they want”- Jesse Kanson-Benanav
“We have a severe housing shortage that’s driven up the cost of housing higher than almost anywhere else in the country. A clear ruling that makes clear this law is mandatory, not an option for communities, will go a long way.” Jesse Kanson-Benanav
We’re delighted to share that we’ve connected with Yes on 6 for Somerville thanks to Erika Uyterhoeven! We’re official endorsers of the campaign, following on the heels of our urging folks to vote yes to increase our CPA surcharge & further fund affordable homes, parks, & accessibility. #YesOn6
Thank you Somerville YIMBY for your support!!! #Somerpoli
