Californians for Affordable Housing

A network of over 60 grassroots organizations in racially and economically diverse areas across California have formed Californians for Affordable Housing (CAH) to reject the Governor Brown’s housing plan “Trailer Bill 707” (a.k.a. “By-right”). This housing plan would enable for-profit developers to obtain approvals of mostly market rate housing projects “by right” without public or environmental review.
