"We HAVE to think regionally. ...there are many people who may not re-elect me to sit on this body because of this vote. But we HAVE to think regionally." - Councilmember Carlos Romero from East Palo Alto Email him a thank you tonight: cromero@cityofepa.org
"I found myself homeless for 27 days...The only way I got myself housed was by paying 6 months rent.
I am a renter. I have no prospect of becoming a homeowner.. I am a lawyer. I am an elected official. CASA helps people like me."
- Napa Councilmember @BeliatheSupe
"The world depends on this region and our economic vitality."
"They say we have a housing crisis, but then they don't take action.
..if we had a health crisis, people would move quickly.
...but many people say, 'well, I've got a home, so how bad can it be?'"
- Sonoma Councilmember @DavidRabbitt
"We need more people, we need more types of housing... ...We all know it's true: certain jurisdictions do a lot to stop housing."
Sonoma is taking this crisis extremely seriously, and more of the elected officials need credit. Supervisor @DavidRabbitt is throwing just the right amount of shade on other jurisdictions.

Crowd gets a bit disruptive as landlord on ABAG talks about how he pays a lot of taxes and that business can't take too much, and there will be a taxpayer revolt. The landlords clap. Tenants mutter.
Marin is outlining how they're doing good. "We're doing our job, just as much as we can." YIMBYs look at one another meaningfully.pic.twitter.com/fW4ADltslF
We'll have the list of votes later... but for now... 21 votes YES. 9 votes NO. (one absent). CASA at ABAG passes!pic.twitter.com/4KgxBGIz5n
