Dear friends,
If we're going to succeed in changing more laws to solve our housing shortage and affordability crisis, we need to elect more champions to the state legislature.
Nearly a third of the legislature will be new after this election. We need to make sure as many of them as possible are housing champions, to help continue our work in Sacramento to address our housing shortage and affordability crisis. That's why it's so crucial that the housing movement help elect our endorsed candidates.
Many of these races are going to be very close. California YIMBY is mobilizing the grassroots to help get out the vote for our champions.
Can you sign up for a shift during this crucial final weekend? Scroll down to find events for our candidates!
