Yuuuup

California Lawmakers Approve Major Overhaul of Landmark Environmental Law | KQED Gov. Gavin Newsom threatened to repeal the state’s budget if lawmakers did not include two bills that aim to streamline environmental reviews for housing.

"After weeks of tense negotiations with Gov. Gavin Newsom, California lawmakers on Monday passed two controversial bills that promise to make big changes to the state’s landmark environmental law to boost housing and clean energy projects."

“This is, and I can humbly say this as someone who’s been a student of this and a practitioner of sorts over the past six plus years, the most consequential housing reform that we have seen in modern history in the state of California.” - @gavinnewsom.bsky.social

Infinite love and gratitude for all the YIMBYs who sent calls, texts, and emails to make this happen. We don't have power in the building because we have deep pockets or a revolving door. We have power because of YOU. I always tell my team: we work for YOU.

To win the YIMBY and Abundance movement, the work needs to be done in LA.

That starts by electing Sara Hernandez in SD 26 and @johnericksonwh.bsky.social in SD 24 in these crucial districts next year.

I just gave to John Erickson! Show your support with a contribution.

Opinion | Europe Built Trains. America Built Highways and Regret.

While much of the rest of the world invested in rail, the U.S. invested in highways. The result? Unsustainable sprawl & extreme, costly, unhealthy car-dependence.

The rest of the world still invests in transit, as the U.S. lets our transit atrophy.

Let’s change that & invest big time in transit.

Despite political promises, Californians are stressed about their finances California's legislative leaders are working on their promises to address affordability, but voters are growing more concerned about their financial future.

“When asked to name the most important issues for state leaders to be addressing this year, the cost of living, housing affordability and homelessness topped the list — far above concerns about crime and public safety, taxes and immigration, the poll found.” www.latimes.com/california/s...

We are grateful to our Russian Speaking Advisory Board and all our veterans and their families who attended today's 80th Anniversary of Victory in Europe Day!
