Hi Friend,

Single-family zoning is at the root of a lot of our housing challenges. It has ensured that entire neighborhoods remain exclusionary; only those who can afford homes in those neighborhoods can live there.

Who are generally less able to afford them? You guessed it: communities of color.

Senate Bill 1120 would facilitate duplex construction in single-family areas. It also protects renters by exempting properties that currently restrict rents to levels affordable to households of moderate, low, or very low income.

If you're with Abundant Housing LA on centering racial and climate justice, join us in sending letters to our state senators and assemblymembers.
