📣 Big week for housing in MA. From starter homes to new affiliates, this edition of our newsletter captures the momentum. Read here:

On Tuesday, the Legalize Starter Homes Campaign, in partnership with AHMA, launched a coalition supporting starter homes during a press conference. This ballot question makes it easier to build smaller, more affordable starter homes. Watch Full Press Conference Here ⬇️ youtu.be/T251187CDrg

Allowing starter homes on smaller lots ➡️ building homes that everyone can afford. Let's make it reality.

Starter homes are disappearing in MA. This ballot question could help bring them back by legalizing smaller lot sizes statewide. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/01/10/o...

Boston’s zoning code is one of the most complicated in the country — and it’s holding back new homes. 🏘️ On Nov 4, you have the power to change that. Elect leaders ready to simplify our outdated rules and build the homes we need. Can you define zoning in five words or less? 👀

I’m proud to be endorsed by @abundanthousingma.org! I’m committed to making sure working families & seniors can afford to live in MA. As your Worcester D2 City Councilor, I’ll work hard to build more safe & affordable housing, secure protections for tenants, & reform exclusionary zoning policies.

Thank you to everyone who attended our Boston City Council At-Large Candidate Forum last week! It was great to hear directly from candidates on our most pressing issue in the city- Housing Affordability. 📸: Korri Leigh Photography

This week's candidate's forum is a must see! The questionnaire responses are a great read, and its issues made recent appearances in @bostoncitycouncil.bsky.social regular mtg agendas. Live Q&A will add an additional layer of insight to those answers & Council debate so check out the details below:

Great to see @abundanthousingma.org advocating that the Mayor use some of her political capital to push for substantive action on zoning reform and other efforts to increase housing supply in Boston.

A new poll from @massincpolling.bsky.social and @abundanthousingma.org shows that Bostonians overwhelmingly: 1) reject the status quo, 2) want more homes built, and 3) think city officials should take action. Local leaders have a charge from the voters: pass pro-housing policies. Like, now.

New Boston polling our this morning, for @abundanthousingma.org www.bostonglobe.com/2025/10/06/b...
