Everyone in California needs a safe and affordable place to call home. Rents and mortgages within the reach of working families are critical to maintaining California’s business competitiveness. Let’s get California building again.

Update: May 23, 2013 The California Homes and Jobs Act (SB 391) passed off the Senate Appropriations “suspense” file and is now heading to the Senate floor for a vote by the full Senate.

The California Homes and Jobs Act of 2013 (SB 391) will:

• Create 29,000 jobs annually, primarily in the beleaguered construction sector.
• Help businesses attract and retain the talent that fuels California’s economy.
• Generate an estimated $500 million in state investment and leverage an additional $2.78 billion in federal, local, and private investment.
• Deploy these dollars throughout California using a successful private/public partnership model, creating jobs and generating revenue for local governments.
• Build safe and affordable apartments and single-family homes for Californians in need, including families, seniors, veterans, people with disabilities, and people experiencing homelessness.
