SB79 is currently on Gavin Newsom's desk. It’s a law that would speed up housing construction near transit and begin to address the massive housing crisis in our state. Passing it through the legislature was a huge victory for housing advocates and everyone who wants California

There’s a phrase in Spanish, "Con salud, lo hay todo; sin salud, no hay nada.” It means “With good health you have it all; without your health, you have nothing.” It’s with that in mind that I stand firm in my decision to vote NO on the CR. I cannot in good faith vote for a show

Americans need more affordable housing. And it turns out, building more housing, does, in fact, make rents fall. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

I was inspired by this to take a look at the last five years of housing completions in Mass. I later found out I had duplicated work done by Boston Foundation (tbf.org/news-and-insig…) but I could download mine, so w/e. So which towns are building and which aren't?

I want to point out how remarkable this is—apartments on the open market in these cities are cheaper than units that you need to win a housing lottery to obtain (in addition to meeting income criteria and being a US citizen/permanent resident)

“[Massachusetts] Voters soon face a choice: Should the next generation have a realistic path to homeownership in the communities where they work, grew up, or hope to stay, or should exclusionary lot-size rules continue to determine who belongs and who does not?”

Massachusetts has deep “rental deserts," high-opportunity communities with almost no rentals because we've restricted multifamily housing. Tenant stability matters, but blunt rent control policies that ignore supply impacts risk hardening exclusion & shrinking access over time.
