Description

Why must the good die young? This year, California Assemblymember Alex Lee introduced the California Social Housing Act (AB 2053). YIMBY Action sponsored the bill, organized in support of it, and worked with fellow supporting organizations to get it passed. The bill got through several hurdles but ultimately died in the legislature several months ago. In this episode of Infill, Sonja Trauss, one of the founding members of the YIMBY movement, sits down with Paul Williams, founder of the Center for Public Enterprise. They discuss social housing, details about the California Social Housing Act, and why the bill died. Links: Read about the California Social Housing Act: https://www.californiasocialhousing.org/Read the full Social Housing Bill: https://trackbill.com/bill/california-assembly-bill-2053-the-social-housing-act/2226585/ Follow Paul Williams on Twitter: https://twitter.com/PEWilliams_Follow the Center for Public Enterprise on Twitter: https://twitter.com/PubEnterpriseLearn more about the Center for Public Enterprise: https://www.publicenterprise.org/ Follow Sonja Trauss on Twitter: https://twitter.com/SonjaTraussLearn more about YIMBY Action: https://yimbyaction.org/Follow YIMBY Action on Twitter: https://twitter.com/yimbyaction/Follow YIMBY Action on Instagram: https://instagram.com/yimbyaction/Follow YIMBY Action on Facebook: https://facebook.com/yimbyaction/
