CONFRONTING THE HOUSING CRISIS

California’s home prices and rents are higher than just about anywhere else in the country, creating a housing crisis that pushes out our most vulnerable and threatens our economy. Ben co-authored SB 2 and SB 3 which will create new sources of funding for the development of affordable housing. Ben also co-authored SB 35, to make it easier to develop affordable housing on unused, urban lands, while preserving habitats and open space.
