This morning, advocates with @houseRneighbors held a press conference to denounce the decision by corporations like Amazon and Microsoft to spend $350,000 to try to defeat Prop 1A, the social housing initiative which would tax big businesses to fund affordable housing.

Vote YES for Prop 1A to fund social housing that is publicly owned, permanently affordable, green, & sustainable by taxing the wealthiest corporations! Prop 1B diverts existing funds away from affordable housing, and is mostly funded by wealthy corporations.

Property owners have been organizing to exclude renters through restrictive zoning that limits density to small portions of the city, a contributing factor of our massive housing affordability crisis. Renters must speak out for accessible housing near parks and transit!
