When I became mayor, Los Angeles was facing challenges that had been ignored for decades. So I got to work. Homelessness is down 17.5%. Homicides are at their lowest level since the 1960s. More than 42,000 affordable housing units are being fast-tracked. There is still more work to do...

The change I’ve been bringing to Los Angeles is making an impact: ➡️ Street homelessness is down 17.5% ➡️ Comprehensive services are coming on line so people coming off the streets can stay off the streets ➡️ 42,000 affordable housing units are being fast-tracked There’s still a lot more work to do, but my initiatives have brought momentum to LA to continue fixing these problems.

I’m running to keep doing the hard work of moving L.A. forward. Together, we’ve delivered the first sustained decrease in street homelessness in decades, made our city safer through innovative community safety strategies, accelerated tens of thousands of new housing units to make life more affordable, and stood strong against Donald Trump’s attacks on our immigrant communities. But there is still more to do. Join me at

Albuquerque needs more homes, and we are using every tool to make it happen. Today we checked out Boxabl modular units, a fast and affordable way to turn empty land into real housing. Innovations like this help us tackle homelessness and add more affordable homes across our city.

When we speak of affordable housing, there is a simple question that comes to mind: affordable for whom? When it comes to the lowest-income Americans, the US has a housing gap of over 7 million units.

Citywide crime is down almost 30%, car break-ins are down 44%, and homicides are at lows we haven’t seen since the 1950s. We still have more work to do, but these stats are a sign that we are heading in the right direction. Thank you to San Francisco Police and everyone who keeps our city safe.

Housing prices are skyrocketing, and the average American is being priced out of affording a home. I voted for the 21st Century Road to Housing Act to make housing more affordable and help Ohioans achieve the American dream.

Toronto’s at a turning point that mustn’t be a breaking point. I'm running to be your mayor to increase affordable housing and reduce homelessness, for a city and TTC that’s safe, and services we can depend on. Let's move forward to a city that works for everyone, everywhere.

Former Mayor of Coronado California is blowing the whistle on a new housing project These new San Diego “affordable housing units” are going to cost $900,000 per unit He shows a luxury sky rise building with luxury amenities was built for half that “This affordable student housing project is projected to cost taxpayers nearly $900,000 per unit to build. Meanwhile, this luxury residential development recently sold for just $400,000 per unit. So what gives? (Here’s more California Democrat housing projects) - Government funded affordable housing projects like 101 Astoria at $1.1 million per unit - This city college project at $900,000 per unit - Rose Creek Village at $600,000 per unit All routinely cost far more than luxury residential units. I'm Richard Bailey, former mayor of Coronado and here's why you should care. It's very popular these days for politicians to campaign on affordable housing. Obviously, no one is against affordable housing, but the affordable housing projects being built by government agencies are often double the per unit cost — San Diego taxpayers are paying double the amount for lower quality housing that they won't even be eligible to live in”

My name is Omar Fateh, and I’m running for Minneapolis Mayor because for working people, it’s getting harder to build our lives in this city we love. To make an affordable Minneapolis that works for everyone, we need a Mayor that works as hard as we do. I’m ready to get to work.

I ask Karen Bass for her top 3 accomplishments as Mayor Karen Bass? 1. Reducing street homelessness 2. Fast tracking 42,000 units of housing 3. Homicides at a 60 year low "The challenge has been getting the message out when social media is there & truth is something that's up for debate."

Crime in San Francisco this past year has seen historic declines—down nearly 30% citywide. Homicides dropped to their lowest level since 1954, car break-ins are down more than 40%, and we took more than 56 pounds of fentanyl off the streets. The momentum is real, San Franciscans are feeling the difference, and we’re going to keep going. Thank you to San Francisco Police and our city partners for their relentless work to keep our communities safe.

There is so much work to be done to make our country less expensive and more affordable for working families. This work is impossible without an independent Federal Reserve.

Street homelessness and crime are down. Affordable housing is up. We're turning the page and making real progress after decades of inaction. Thank you so much to the more than 200 people who rallied in support of our campaign at our volunteer HQ opening!

California has more than enough housing for everyone — but units are kept empty on purpose. Why? 🤔 So politicians like Gavin Newsom can funnel “affordable housing” subsidies to their real estate donors building luxury apartments.
