The San Francisco Examiner published my op-ed in support of housing and the Marina Safeway project! A response to another piece declaring YIMBYism a "moral myth." I work for a friggin Center for Ethics in Society, so naturally wasn't gonna sit this one out...

Arbitrary vetoes of new housing are the true moral crisis
Opposition to Marina Safeway project reflects a broader pattern of blocking new housing, worsening affordability and limiting access to high-resource neighborhoods.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

While we're cautiously optimistic that fatalities are trending lower than 2024, which was the deadliest year since the start of VZ, there is more work to do to make our roads safer and modeshift away from car dependency, which we must do for our climate goals.

Unlike SFPD which doesn’t prioritize traffic enforcement, speed cameras are on the job 24/7. With appropriate privacy safeguards, these cameras can be an effective approach to making SF streets safer

ICE agents in tactical gear chase down and tackle a U.S. citizen in L.A. After realizing he’s American, they just slink away. Their only explanation: “Why were you running?” Probably because two masked men with guns were trying to snatch him.

What a great group of neighbors! Thanks to all who joined us on today's Forbidden Housing tour. (Here's the group, looking good in front of the Art Deco El Capistrano Apartments in the Mission, an example of the type of housing that couldn't be built under today's rules!)

The car-brain required to believe that parking is the biggest issue facing low-income renters in California is quite a thing to behold.

Senator Wiener’s SB79 would streamline housing along major transit corridors and allow transit agencies to develop their properties for housing and to generate revenue to support their operations. Housing committee chair Wahab is..skeptical. (And wrong)

Thank you to the amazing housing advocates who came from around the state to support our legislation to allow more housing near high quality public transit (SB 79). More housing density near transit is good for housing affordability, good for transit ridership & good for climate action. Go team!

Critics of SB 79, Scott Wiener’s bill to legalize apartments near public transit, decry the high price of the “luxury” homes that would be allowed under the law. They argue that we should build *affordable* housing instead of market rate. This common argument deserves an answer.

Along with fellow advocates, we are frustrated by the SFMTA revisiting Valencia Street’s approved design and reintroducing left turns along the corridor at the Mayor’s urging. This is unsafe and will be ineffective in improving traffic flow. See our joint statement:

I introduced CEQA legislation (SB 607) to avoid CEQA being used to stop new housing & make other smart changes to aspects of CEQA that turn it into a process nightmare that doesn’t always help the environment. SB 607 will help create abundance of the things that make life better & more affordable:🧵
