ADVOCACY ALERT!

Please Help Us Thank Our Legislators for Opposing AB 1000!

Thank you to all members who took action on Assembly Bill 1000 (Reyes), a bill so harmful to the homebuilding industry that the California Building Industry Association identified it as a “Housing Killer," and the California Chamber of Commerce considered this legislation as a “Job Killer” for the Southern California region. Because of your efforts, this housing killer bill did not pass. Every message sent to your elected representatives made a difference. Thank you!

Please join us in thanking Assemblymembers Tasha Boerner, Diane Dixon, Heath Flora, Josh Hoover, Devon Mathis, Blanca Pacheco, James Ramos, and Lori Wilson for taking action to oppose this bill.

We have your email ready to go! Take action by clicking the button below.
