Very good news btw, Florida has a housing issue.
Most progressives I know are YIMBYs who support fewer restrictions on housing in order to tackle the rising cost of home ownership for average Americans. One of the few areas progressives and conservatives should align (in theory).

There are absolutely people (i.e. wealthy homeowners in the Bay Area) who claim to be progressive but oppose density. They may be progressive on some issues like LGBTQ rights, but I wouldn't call them progressives.
