Tell Newsom to Support Streamlined Affordable Housing
AB 2011 combines some of the best ideas advanced in the Legislature over the last several years for promoting affordable housing development with a requirement to create “high road” jobs. This legislation gives Californians the opportunity to work toward a shared goal of building more affordable housing for struggling Californians while also growing a thriving, high-wage construction workforce every community needs.
California is facing a housing crisis. An overall increase in the housing supply is needed to help overcome the state’s current deficit of 2.5 million housing units. AB 2011 would rapidly accelerate the production of affordable housing, expanding housing opportunities to struggling families, seniors, workers, and veterans.
The prevailing wage requirements and enforcement provisions within the bill would benefit workers, while the housing provisions in the bill would provide new job opportunities to put those workers to work. AB 2011 would open the door to middle-class, blue-collar careers for young workers.
