New from me: A brief for @rooseveltinstitute.org on the logic of YIMBY policymaking and its applicability to other domains. What principles underlying the YIMBY agenda are transferrable to thinking about energy, healthcare, and other areas? Short 🧵 to follow. rooseveltinstitute.org/publications...

TWO big Sac housing events coming up that you're not going to want to miss. FIRST: Our 2026 Sacramento legislative town hall with @cayimby.bsky.social. Invite only -- join our discord for invitation! discord.com/invite/zemKf...

Legalize it

We should build more apartments in the city of Sacramento imho

My fellow House Sacramento members had a great visit with Senator Angelique Ashby's office last week at YIMBY lobby day. We're excited for SB 79, the big transit-oriented development bill, to get to the Senate floor soon. Let's export Sacramento's housing policy statewide! @senatorashby.bsky.social

We had over 30 people turn out for our event on housing and homelessness in Sacramento County last night. Thanks to Supervisor Rich Desmond, County Planning Director Todd Smith, and Deputy County Executive Dave DeFanti for a great panel discussion. And thanks to 19 Handles for hosting us.

Really awesome @sacyimby.bsky.social discussion tonight with Supervisor Desmond and county leadership on housing policy outside the boundaries of Sac City. Big things cooking!

TOMORROW!

When it comes to building the housing our region needs to address its homelessness crisis, Sacramento County matters. It matters a lot. Please join us next Tuesday to hear Supervisor Desmond's thoughts on housing in Sacramento County & ask him YOUR questions!

Reminder! Our conversation with Supervisor Rich Desmond on housing in Sacramento County is LESS THAN TWO WEEKS AWAY! We can’t wait to see you there!

We are excited to be hosting a conversation with Sacramento County Supervisor Rich Desmond on Tues, May 27! Supervisor Desmond has been a key voice for housing on the Board of Supervisors. We look forward to chatting with him about his work & what’s next for housing in Sacramento. Please join us!

For instance, @sacyimby.bsky.social's biggest win in terms of production has been removing basically all discretionary approvals for multifamily housing — but the yard signs still say "end exclusionary zoning" because no one knows what "ministerial approvals NOW" means

🚨🚨🚨Big opportunity to advocate for safe streets at council tonight ⬇️

Happy hour tonight is RELOCATED to Urban Roots! (New Helvetia is now closed Mondays!)

Help support a key, exciting new safe streets initiative in Sacramento! Here's how 👇

Huge Sacramento news — the City is proposing a new team of 6 engineers with funding devoted exclusively to safe streets quick build and tactical innovation projects! @arianelange.bsky.social's story here: www.sacbee.com/news/local/a... BUT WE NEED YOUR HELP TO GET THIS PASSED! Here's how:

In case you had any doubts about just how deeply pro-housing Sacramento is, it just elected the guy whose top priority is literally: “Increasing quality housing supply at all income levels while protecting renters”

None of the three story townhomes in this picture would be allowed under Sacramentos bulk control requirements, which are currently the law of the land in all formerly R1 and R2 zones. It’s a problem. We have to fix that before we see meaningful outcome change.

Join us this Thursday at New Helvetia Brewing for our first post-election housing happy hour!

Would love to see Sacramento do this. @sacyimby.bsky.social could be an actionable thing to pursue on the safe streets front.

Hi Sacramento! 👋 We're the local all-volunteer pro-housing group fighting to end the housing and homelessness crisis by building more housing at all income levels. Join us!
