Great way to help support abundant homes in Minnesota! Gotta keep organizing to make the changes we know we need, and support from people like you makes organizing better and more effective!

People need homes.

We’re short 100,000 homes in MN.

In OR, they figured out how to build more.

Yet, the #mnleg has failed to make meaningful progress to make it easier to build more homes.
