California scored a huge win for fair housing today, when the court ruled in favor of HCD and against discriminatory housing practices by the City of Anaheim, setting a precedent that other California jurisdictions should take to heart. bit.ly/HCDScoresWinFo…

This is a BIG WIN for fair housing in California. Congratulations to @California_HCD and @GmasHouseOfHope for this hard fought victory.

NEW: We’re seeking to challenge the City of La Cañada Flintridge’s denial of a mixed-use affordable housing project in court.   Cities have a duty to facilitate, not block, affordable housing to alleviate our housing crisis. oag.ca.gov/news/press-rel…

That lawsuit Huntington Beach filed that was, in @ProfSchleich’s words, batsh*t bananas? The court concurs. oag.ca.gov/news/press-rel…

California has reached a settlement with Coronado after they violated state law by refusing to plan for new housing. No city is above the law. We will continue working with communities to build more housing, faster in order to support Californians. gov.ca.gov/2023/10/20/cor…

When it comes to addressing our housing crisis, there’s not a moment to waste. Time is of the essence. #AB1485 recognizes that urgency. I'm grateful to @MattHaneySF and @Scott_Wiener oag.ca.gov/news/press-rel…

Thrilled to see @MattHaneySF’s #AB1485 heading to @CAGovernor’s desk. I'm sponsoring this bill because it strengthens CA DOJ’s ability to enforce state housing laws. The bottom line is that every local government — without exception — must build its fair share of housing.


Best running group in LA.

There’s nothing like running with the @Boyleheightsbr A spectacular view with an amazing group of people. Thank you @rjcruzLA for inviting us to join you.



I could get behind this.

Wait. There is a Mrs. Roper Bar crawl in San Diego and I am just finding out about this now?

Exciting news on the state housing front.

“The Special Assistant Attorney General for Housing, a position newly created in the State of California, will have former Mayor Alex Fisch at the helm starting on Monday, May 22, 2023. ‘I’m absolutely thrilled,’ Fisch offered. ‘It’s a dream job.’” culvercitycrossroads.com/2023/05/19/exc…

All it takes is one drive around any of California’s cities to see that we’re in the throes of an undeniable housing crisis.   This crisis will only worsen unless all of us at all levels of government work in unison.   That includes the City of Elk Grove.


Norma Franklin Reposted

“Building more affordable housing is the most effective tool to reduce and prevent homelessness, the City of Elk Grove is blatantly usurping fair housing laws and working against solving our housing and homelessness crisis. 🧵

California and @AGRobBonta are filing a lawsuit against the city of Elk Grove for allegedly violating state fair housing laws. Communities that fail to build their fair share of housing, including those refusing to develop affordable housing, will be held to account.

BIG housing decision out of the Fifth District Court of Appeal that makes my little housing nerd heart go all a-flutter. courts.ca.gov/opinions/docum…

Join our #HousingAccountablity & @AGRobBonta #HousingStrikeForce & @MayorToddGloria for a provocative conversation on local accountability to advance housing for all. Great final day for @housingca #HousingsNextChapter conference.
