Gotta write him and ask him why he hates social security, why he wants SNAP to die.

Seriously, does anyone think this is going to give them some armor against the next time a GOP rep calls them "commie pinko socialist"? And more importantly, do they realize the GOP has played that card so often it doesn't really work?

I get it, I want us to pull our weight more, too, but 1) housing isn't a thing that moves particularly fast, and 2) the vibe shift is real, and is particularly concentrated in the faction that Mamdani represents. Wish I had more for you there.

I vaguely remember back when Hochul tried to get the Housing Compact into the budget, the DSA caucus was much more open to a Grand Bargain including it, while moderates like Comrie considered it DOA. It probably has more to do with age, frankly, but they've been more movable on the issue.

Mack is going to be terrifying if this is his little boy body.

On the bright side, as 40th of 51 districts in affordable housing production, we're going to get some fast tracked affordable housing as outlined in Prop 2 (favord by 55% of this year's voters).
