SB50

SB50 failed again upon reconsideration in the CA State Senate on Thursday which means it is done for this legislative session. 

And while this one bill is done, given Senator Wiener's past actions, it's clear he is still intent on pushing some housing bill through to accomplish his goals of over riding local control.  There is a real possibility that amendments to other ongoing legislation could be added to incorporate all of the things previously contained in SB50. 

I am glad that our State Senator Glazer voted against this bill.  It's important to keep this in mind in deciding who to support in our state legislature because unfortunately, many of the housing battles are won and lost at the state level.
