Happy Saturday, Twitter! Last month, CA Governor @GavinNewsom signed several new, transformative housing bills into law to help combat the ever-worsening crisis.

This morning, statewide NIMBY group Livable California gathers to, as the kids say, "cope and seethe."

🍿🧵
The bills people are most infuriated by?

#AB2011, which allows new housing to be built in commercial areas *by right*, bypassing local processes, and #AB2097, which eliminates parking requirements for new housing near public transit.

It’s been a helluva year for YIMBYs!
10 minutes in and the meeting is starting to get underway. There are just 40 people here, including me.

This is an unprecedentedly low participation rate. These meetings used to bring in a 150-200+ people. Repeated YIMBY wins are clearly taking their toll on the membership!
