Young people want to live in Connecticut. However, a lack of affordable homes and reliable transit make that impossible. Governor Ned Lamont let's sign HB 5002 into law to make CT a state for all groups to thrive. Link to article in bio.

30% of homeowners and 50% of homerenters are cost-burdened in CT. CT has the lowest vacancy rate in the country and homelessness has risen by 13%. We need to keep Governor Ned Lamont on track to sign HB 5002. Please take 2 minutes to send a quick email or make a call. Link in bio.



🚨TOMORROW: Join us at the Pro-Homes Meet Up at East Rock Brewing in New Haven @ 3PM. This is a chance to hang with the community, hear about YIMBYtown, and advocate for Governor Ned Lamont to sign HB 5002 into law! RSVP here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…


"I think Governor Ned Lamont wants to get to a yes. He has certainly been involved in this process during the legislative session, even before the vote,” said Harrison, the CT Director of RPA. “I think his instincts have been very good on recognizing how important the bill is.”


Let's sign HB 5002! Governor Ned Lamont

A nuanced take calling Governor Ned Lamont to “sign and fix” HB5002. We wouldn’t say the whole bill is Work Live Ride but appreciate the support for transit oriented communities, as of right, parking, and commercial conversion! The governor should take this approach to keep CT strong.
