Too many Utah families are working harder than ever but not making ends meet. To Donald Trump and the D.C. elite, affordability is just a slogan. I'm excited to announce my run for Congress, because the challenges facing Utah and this country demand we get off the sidelines.

This week: 16 dead in Tennessee bomb plant explosion At least 6 dead in Mississippi homecoming mass shooting At least 4 dead in South Carolina bar mass shooting. Not a word of consolation for any of them from Trump If he can't blame an immigrant or liberal he doesn't care.

MAJOR NEWS: @GavinNewsom signed SB 79, my bill allowing more housing near public transit — rail, subway, rapid bus. It’s a huge step for housing in California. It’ll create more homes, strengthen our transit systems & reduce traffic & carbon emissions. Thank you, Governor!

Absolutely bananas that “we gotta build more houses” is used as the basis of an attack ad. A generational policy divide is opening and only one side is growing as a voting block. Kiss social security (and maybe Medicare) goodbye if we don’t build more housing.
Mikie Sherrill wants to rip the “garden” out of the Garden State and replace it with high-rises and traffic jams. Overdevelopment? She’s all in. Your quiet suburb? Her next project. Stop overdevelopment. Stop Mikie. Save Jersey. 🌳🚫🏗️

I don't really think this makes much sense: - It seems plausible that many Americans think that "investors buying too much housing" causes price increases. - It seems very clear that this belief does not correspond with the facts. - Given this, we should convince people.
