Housing

We are experiencing an unprecedented housing and homelessness crisis. We enact systemic policy change in three areas: production, protection. and preservation.

Workforce & Labor

From automation to the gig economy, technology and the tech industry are changing the nature of work. We advance public and corporate policy that ensures everyone has access to good jobs.

Yes on Prop 15

We're working in the Schools & Communities First coalition with hundreds of organizations across California to pass Proposition 15 in November, reclaiming $11.5 billion per year to fund our schools and local communities.

We're co-sponsoring and endorsing four key bills that will protect tenants and build more affordable housing.

Fair Chance to Housing Campaign

We're working with Just Cities to prevent landlords from discriminating in rental housing applications in Alameda County and to give residents a fair change to accessing housing.
