You do realize that he unseated the labor union friendly incumbent, took Peter Thiel’s funding and presided over a Cupertino NIMBY housing forum last year, right?

I don't follow Dem races as much anymore but if agreeing with the general sentiment that we need affordability-first class-affirmative rezoning that prioritizes housing the less privileged before addressing the more privileged is somehow technolibertarianism then uhh ok

not like the people he's disagreeing with on this bill literally asked Peter Thiel for funding or anything

But if it is a meaningless sentiment that is backed by no real actual policy and in effect continues to support his existing constituents’ assets going up in value by $100K a year (or 1-2 teachers salaries per year), OK.

Is it okay to appreciate the words in a tweet without researching the entire voting record of the person who tweeted it?

Was reading this in the context of the earlier 827 conversation, which by the way, if your main beef with it is not enough upzoning down there and too much upzoning in SF/Oakland, Khanna and Eshoo’s districts are exactly where you’d want to see some sig upzoning

So you're saying 827 doesn't upzone many of the places where significant upzoning is needed?

What is “needed”? It should be near existing transit infrastructure bc other places wouldn’t be able to handle it. But if the argument is higher AMI census tracts w jobs/housing imbalance versus lower AMI census tracts then Eshoo & Khanna’s districts are key.

I mean I don't think you're interested in what I think is needed. I thought you were saying that *you* think more is needed in the south bay, but 827 doesn't provide it, at least not as much as it should

I think you should go and hang out in the South Bay in public meetings and observe the very noticeable differences in culture, assumptions, political feasibility, etc. things that one may take for granted in SF, like consensus around rent control, are actively derided down there
