Homes, Jobs, Affordability
California’s Housing Crisis is More Acute Than Ever
Millions of Californians are struggling to find an affordable place to live. Workers and families, seniors and veterans are all finding it harder to keep up with rising rents. Voter frustration with the cost of living is rising.
State leaders are calling for solutions. “We need to support a bond to address issues of housing,” Governor Newsom said in May, urging the Legislature to act.
The best way to make housing more affordable is to build more affordable homes. But with housing funding running out, there is real danger affordable production could come to a halt.
The Affordable Housing Bond Act of 2026 is the next step California needs. It places a $10 billion bond on next year’s ballot — allowing voters to support the production and preservation of affordable housing for lower-income households.
Two housing bonds — both with the same name and the same goal — are moving through the Legislature this year. Their passage is critical to help every community build more of the safe, affordable homes Californians need.
It’s time for a
Housing Bond Now!
