At the Family Zoning Plan rally in SF and a speaker just said her grandmother died last night and the people opposed to the plan shouted liar at her. If this is the character of the opposition to plans to keep seniors in the city and welcome new neighbors, you sure you want to join them?

It's crunchtime, folks! SB 79, our bill to legalize apartments in transit rich areas of California, is about to go up for a vote! Call, text, and email! @cayimby.bsky.social cayimby.org/call-sb-79/

Old gas stations and closed dry cleaners are some of the best places for new homes. But inconsistent and not technically sound approaches to removing contamination punish developers who take on more ambitious clean-up projects. We can fix it. prosperitycalifornia.org/news/2025/09...

I ran a free tax prep site where the IRS trained us to tell people there was a firewall between ICE and the IRS. It was a point of pride for many people to pay taxes in a country where they found opportunity. This is predatory and not getting enough attention: www.cnn.com/2025/08/08/p...

There are hundreds of thousands of contaminated sites in California, many of them old gas stations or auto body shops in great locations for new housing. Why do so many stay vacant or underutilized? Delays and complications that aren't related to safety: prosperitycalifornia.org/blog/2025/08...

Love this take on the need for SB 79 from @abundanthousingla.bsky.social leader Monica Rivera: taxpayers fund transit infrastructure and then are blocked from using it by exclusionary land use policies. Let's go! calmatters.org/commentary/2...

One of our first-ever sponsored bills at @prosperityca.bsky.social was prioritized by the Governor and written into SB 131! Years of work from many in the housing, transit, and renewable energy movements led to these reforms. I couldn't be prouder to be a part of getting them across the finish line!

Master class in speaking truth to power right here, from responding to direct threats to his chairmanship to this. Love to see it.

I get to work with an incredible team to align public policy and budget priorities with California’s ambitious goals to address climate change, lower our cost of living, increase economic equity, and ensure enough housing is being built to meet our needs. Join us #ProsperTogether
