We enthusiastically endorse Councilmember Marc Humbert for re-election. CM Humbert has been a fantastic supporter of housing throughout Berkeley, including his own district. He has led crucial work including the Middle Housing Ordinance (voted up) and the Corridor Zoning Update (soon to be voted on), and managed to build effective alliances to deliver housing, fairly and equitably.

Councilmember Mark Humbert readily earns our endorsement for re-election to Berkeley City Council District 8. In his strong first term, CM Humbert has taken tough positions in favor of housing, including the Middle Housing Ordinance and housing along Berkeley’s commercial corridors, and has been a vocal supporter for adding more housing in the Claremont District. Not just his votes, but also his comments on the dais, demonstrate that he truly understands the importance of building homes and embracing change in order to solve our housing crisis. In addition to his housing work, we appreciate Humbert’s consistent support for safer streets, including his vote for the Hopkins Street bike lane, and better transit in Berkeley and the region writ large.
