    "We have to build more housing. We have to build more housing. We HAVE to build more housing." - Mayor @LondonBreed

    Housing won today in San Francisco. There was one candidate calling for more housing for all, calling for an end to exclusionary zoning. A progressive calling for progress on housing. Congratulations to all the YIMBYs who worked so hard for this victory!
    First results are out: We're up by over 27 points. We won. Thank you so much to San Francisco voters, & to all of our staff, volunteers, donors, endorsers, & everyone who worked so hard over the last 6 months.

    "I plan to change the politics of no to the politics of YES. We need more housing across our ENTIRE city." - Mayor @LondonBreed

    "In 2014, Tokyo issued permits for 142,417 new housing units. In contrast, the entire state of California.. issued permits for only 83,657 new housing units. Little wonder that demand for housing has outstripped supply in the Bay Area."

    This is common, normalized corruption we have built into the permitting process in San Francisco. This is why we need as-of-right development to reduce this kind of shakedown.
    Russian bathhouse owner Mikhail Brodsky sued SF to block 1,575 homes at neighboring India Basin. Project developer Build Inc. paid $100,000 to his spa and $100,000 to his Oakland college to settle the case. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl… @SFjkdineen

    Checking back in on Aaron Peskin’s housing record over the past couple decades he’s been in power

    The headline SHOULD BE “90 families will have affordable housing after NIMBY neighbors needlessly delay for 3 years” But in the meantime we’ll still be there to make sure housing gets built and NIMBYs rack up more Ls. Join the fight today! yimbyaction.org/join

    SHOCKING new attack ads claim YIMBY-endorsed candidate @JoelEngardio wants to make the SF's Sunset District more like... [shudders] ... PARIS. [clutches pearls]

    When we sent in the 500 petition signers asking the Board of Supervisors to support UCSF in it's plans to build housing and expand the hospital, this is how Supervisor @AaronPeskin responds to constituents and fellow Supervisors. It is conduct unbecoming of an elected official.

    SF YIMBY (a chapter of @yimbyaction) is proud to endorse @MattHaneySF for Assembly! Matt's top committment on housing in the State Assembly is to "End exclusionary zoning policies that stop desperately needed housing from being built." 👏👏👏👏👏
