"Neighborhood character isn't homes, it isn't buildings, it's small business owners, it's municipal officials, it's teachers, its firefighters, it's entrepreneurs and doctors and innovators, it's people, it's the people that live in the buildings in our communities." 🤩💯
Resisting Change In The Name Of "Community Character" Is Actually Destroying It "By 2030, 21% of Massachusetts Residents Will Be 65+, Up From 14% In 2010. In communities like Marblehead... the average age has gone from 41 to 48 in 20 years." remainplaces.com/post/resisting…
Key lesson for states that adopt new zoning/housing requirements for localities to meet: Providing high-quality, accessible training & TA for localities who are *willing* to comply goes a long way. Fighting a handful of active resisters is expensive.

Spokane, WA (pop 230k) has the best middle housing zoning in the nation. There is no excuse for city leaders who claim to care about housing affordability to not pass the same reforms.
Daily reminder that Spokane allows the following across most of the city: ✅ Six- or eight-plexes ✅ 40’ in height ✅ 80% lot coverage ✅ 5’ side setbacks (3’ on narrow lots) ✅ 0’ front setback and rear w/ ADU ✅ Parking optional ✅ 1,200sf minimum lot size
More homes and bigger Snickers bars sounds like a great platform. #SOTU
Ranking Member @RepMaxineWaters is holding a #SOTU2024 watch event with housing advocates to hear what @POTUS has to say about housing. Make HOUSING 🏠 a pillar of the State of the Union.
A weird, but important thing about messaging for a movement like YIMBY is saying the same things over and over again. It starts to feel stupid saying “legalize housing” for the 100th time, but there will always be ppl who are hearing you say that for the first time. Don’t stop.
Lots of chatter on how @POTUS will address housing tonight! @Up4Growth did a great job recapping past #SOTU speeches.
Reminder: Places like these are illegal to build across North America. Legalize storybook urbanism!
Happy to stand with you on this one! How you pay your rent doesn’t matter. Source of income discrimination is wrong. We need more housing opportunities for people with modest means. @GovAndyBeshear thank you for always reminding us to lead with kindness and empathy
Today I vetoed House Bill 18, because every family deserves access to safe, affordable housing. This bill would impact vulnerable people – people with disabilities, our senior citizens, low-income families and homeless veterans. It's wrong. And Kentucky deserves better.

A lot of wisdom in this post. Definitely felt the same big tent spirit at @YIMBYtown and hoping, as Ryan does, we can keep working to broaden the coalition on important issues like housing affordability, even when we may disagree strongly in other areas. Good stuff!
The big tent aspect of the YIMBY movement is one of its defining features, but a question that came up at @YIMBYtown this week was, "How big should the tent be?" I delve into that question at "City of Yes." ryanpuzycki.com/p/building-a-b…
@SonjaTrauss talks at @YIMBYtown about the importance of direct project advocacy. It racks up wins, builds community and builds more homes! Learn more at yimbylaw.org #YIMBYtown @Yimby_Law
