BIG NEWS! This week the Colorado State House will vote on a statewide housing bill that would prohibit cities (like Boulder!) from setting occupancy limits based on relationship status! Ask your reps to get this done! Here's how: BedroomsAreForPeople.com/ref…

Cities are perfectly capable of creating local solutions to the housing crisis, but when they don’t or won’t, then that is precisely when the state should step in and create regional standards.
NEW: Colorado governor, Democrats unveil major effort to boost housing by directing local land-use policy. Here’s what it would do. coloradosun.com/2023/03/22/c…

If you want to solve the housing crisis, occupancy reform and allowing a few more people to live together in the same home is one way to do that.
Appreciate the @dailycamera's support for occupancy limit reform! From @GJVGarrison: "allowing for a new roommate here or there would provide tenants across the city with more options, while also helping some renters alleviate the burdensome cost of rent." dailycamera.com/2023/03/19/e…

But connecting regions or cities doesn't necessitate building highways *through* the cities. And designing a new city around an existing highway is one thing; redesigning an old city around a new highway is something else entirely. So why did it happen?

There are cities that build lots of housing and where housing is cheap (green). There are cities that build little housing and are expensive (purple). There is no city in America that builds lots of housing and is also expensive. That giant red box is completely empty.

The first time I met Giselle we talked campaign tactics, neighborhood groups, housing, balancing service/work/family. I’m sad to see her leave this race. Thank you for your work. Californians, pay attention: if someone like Giselle can’t serve you, then what’s our future?
I’ve made the difficult decision to end my campaign for the California State Assembly. Here’s why and what’s next 🧵

The attack on a Ukrainian train station is yet another horrific atrocity committed by Russia, striking civilians who were trying to evacuate and reach safety.
