The governor is understandably busy but he promised 3.5 million new housing units when he ran for office and I havent heard anything from him on this issue since early last year---the pandemic is already starting to subside but housing is our true achilles' heel.
It seems like the only units being built in urban areas are for wealthy people, otherwise new, affordable homes for middle class families, which are already scarce, are at least a 90-minute drive away from the city.
What to do?
