Bravo @johnericksonwh.bsky.social 👏👏

“Across our state, commonsense projects that would make communities safer, greener, and more livable are caught in an endless tangle of redundant approvals, over-engineered reviews, and bureaucratic inertia.”

Infinite love and gratitude for all the YIMBYs who sent calls, texts, and emails to make this happen. We don't have power in the building because we have deep pockets or a revolving door. We have power because of YOU. I always tell my team: we work for YOU.
