Affordable Housing Policy

California is facing a critical housing shortage. Gabriel Fernandez supports the implementation of SB 9 to increase housing supply and lower costs, alongside other bold, common-sense solutions that speed up production and ensure that every Californian has a safe, dignified place to call home.

Increasing Supply Through Zoning Reform

Streamline permissions for multi-family units and transit-oriented developments.
Expand the 'By-Right' housing process to fast-track affordable projects.
Incentivize 'missing middle' housing like duplexes and townhomes.

Protecting Renters and Homeowners

Strengthen statewide protections against unjust evictions and predatory rent hikes.
Expand programs helping working families build generational wealth.
Invest in preserving existing affordable housing stocks.

Direct Investment in Social Housing

Establish a State Housing Fund to finance mixed-income public developments.
Utilize vacant state-owned land for rapid low-income housing production.
Partner with non-profits to create supportive housing for unhoused neighbors.
