Or maybe they realize that this will not actually solve the housing crisis but will create great public harm. Have you considered that there is reasonable opposition from local elected officials who know their cities well and have valid reasons? LA in particular would be harmed.

Almost all San Francisco affordable housing advocates oppose SB50. They are on the ground every day, as are the SF Supervisors, and they know that Wiener's trickle down, market-driven approach to housing is a failure of epic proportion.

So I believe in markets and I like private real estate developers & think they have a right to profit. I’m a YIMBY. BUT....in this instance, I don’t think the market alone can solve housing crisis. And this bill is bad public policy.

That’s a straw man characterization of what’s happening. The bill effectively brings inclusionary housing for the first time across the state. Plus the legislators supporting SB50 are also working on things like the rental registry, just cause, ADUs, affordable housing bonds, etc
