Sacramento is increasing housing costs without meeting the need for affordable housing, approving density, ignoring water shortages, removing environmental protections, and transferring wealth from individuals to corporations!

Mother Earth: Sacrificing the Environment for Developer Profits

Linda Koelling, former Mayor, Foster City & Kristi Corley, community advocate

Legislators, under the influence of developers’ demands that their projects “pencil out,” are pushing housing bills that unravel 40 years of environmental protections. They put their constituents in danger at a time when drought, fires, and flooding have never been more prevalent.

What WE Can Do to Stop the Attack

Town Hall Team

Across the state, individuals and groups are challenging land grab legislation marketed as providing affordable housing, but actually benefiting the vulture capitalists who orchestrated the housing crash of 2008. Learn about the big and small ways everyone can participate in writing letters, making calls, testifying, writing and hosting events to keep democracy strong.
