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…

“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
