Lt. Governor Stratton has championed housing programs that have eliminated over $33 million in student loan debt while helping families buy homes. She'll push to tie federal funding to zoning reform and cut red tape blocking new homes.

YIMBY Action supports Mike McGuire for Congress because California's housing crisis needs allies in Washington, and McGuire helped pass some of the biggest housing reforms in state history. As Senate President pro Tem, he led the Senate in 2025 when the Legislature passed landmark CEQA reform exempting most urban infill housing from environmental review.

Marin YIMBY is proud to endorse Jared Huffman for re-election to the U.S. House of Representatives in California’s 2nd Congressional District. We were particularly encouraged by his support for the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, a bipartisan federal housing package that expands affordable-housing financing and support for local housing strategies.

SF YIMBY is proud to endorse Scott Wiener in his historic Congressional bid. The YIMBY movement would not be anywhere near where it is today if not for the work and influence of Scott Wiener. In his nine years as a State Senator, he has worked tirelessly on impactful legislation that has ignited the YIMBY movement nationwide and inspired countless other legislators throughout the country. We have no doubt he can have the same impact in Congress. Highlights of his long legislative record include: SB 35 one of his first bills, removed needless roadblocks and sped up the production thousands of affordable homes across California and over 3,400 in just San Francisco alone SB 828 reformed state planning law and actually provided a real path to require San Francisco to produce the homes it desperately needs SB 423 permanently codified SB 35 and added provisions to make it stronger SB 79 his most recent achievement, legalized multi-family housing near major transit hubs throughout the state Scott has been unwavering in his commitment to building more housing, even when it was politically difficult. He has been the YIMBY movement's most important champion in elected office, and we stand with the leader who has stood with us from the beginning. As the YIMBY movement goes nationwide, we can't think of a better champion to represent us in Washington.

We support Xavier Becerra because of the commitment he made when he filled out our questionnaire: "I will pursue legislation to ensure state housing law applies in the coastal zone just like everywhere else."

YIMBY Action endorses Rob Bonta for Attorney General because he has been one of the strongest enforcers of California's housing laws. In 2021 he created the Housing Strike Force, the first unit in the AG's office dedicated to holding cities accountable for breaking state housing law. Pro-housing laws only matter if someone enforces them, and Bonta has shown he will.

As Speaker of the Oregon House in 2019, she was responsible for HB 2001, a first-in-the-nation bill that received significant bipartisan support. As Governor, Kotek has continued to focus on housing, passing more legislation, including HB 2138 in 2025, which YIMBYs went to Salem to advocate for.
