SF voters again made their housing views clear. Are progressives listening? https://t.co/KLXBo4M13n @yimbyaction @HACdotorg @GrowSF

@RobertGammon Even conservatives want radical action against insurance companies!

Jane Kim's lead grows to over 300,000. She's headed for victory. Here's why I predicted she would win, https://t.co/LpCAoTu3E5 @JaneKim

A great summary of why incoming Mayor Raman will finally get housing built in LA. @yimbyaction

[Abundant Housing LA @AbundantHousing]

AHLA is SO EXCITED and honored to congratulate the Mayor-elect of the City of Los Angeles, Nithya Raman! Our biggest pro-housing champion on the LA City Council is now going to be our PRO-HOUSING MAYOR!

AHLA has had the opportunity to work closely with Nithya on so many important efforts, from reforming single-family zoning and protecting SB 79 to streamlining permitting and speeding up utility connections. We are so excited to create a more affordable and livable LA alongside Nithya!

This victory is a sea change for Los Angeles. Nithya's campaign put housing affordability front and center. She ran on tripling housing production, cutting red tape, and allowing more housing in single-family zones, and won BECUASE OF IT! Just a few years ago, a platform that put building more housing front and center was not considered winnable.

And that change is because of you: the pro-housing advocates that have put in the work, day in and day out, to spread the message that we need to build much more housing of all types to solve out affordability crisis.

LA elected a pro-housing Mayor with vision, courage, and determination. Now let's get to work!

A brighter future for Los Angeles,
@nithyavraman

@GregCasar When we met a decade ago I predicted you would be Texas' first Latino governor. Glad I was wrong.

The big question in San Francisco is whether all the billionaire-backed measures win. Our predictions, https://t.co/8imUCGnaXm @ValisJason @EskSF @yimbyaction
