Last night #SB79, one of the biggest housing bills in CA history, made it out of the State Assembly with one vote to spare.
The data is fascinating.
Let’s dive into the details, and see how your State Assemblymember voted. 👇

Once again, LA politicians showed they aren't serious about solving the housing shortage.
In the Bay, 22 of 30 Assemblymembers voted Yes.
In SoCal, only 17 of 44 voted Yes.
Dems like @MayorOfLA fought SB 79 while young champions like @AsmSadeElhawary looked to the future.

Showing YIMBYs true bipartisan nature, 35% of Assembly Republicans voted for SB 79.
And even though @CA_Dem endorsed the legislation, only 42% of Assembly Democrats voted for the bill.
Ironic considering CA will lose 3-5 Dem congressional seats if we don't grow.

We need to strengthen pro-housing organizing in SoCal and beyond. Join @peoplefirstcal as we build a movement for changemakers, not cheerleaders.
