STATEMENT: MAYOR GARCETTI ON THE STATE ASSEMBLY’S PASSAGE OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING PACKAGE

“The affordability crisis in California threatens our great state’s legacy of providing economic opportunity for all. The housing package approved by the Assembly will deliver critical funding and help streamline the development process — so that we can break ground more quickly on homes that families can afford. I congratulate Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon, Senate President pro Tem Kevin de León, and the entire Legislature for their leadership and strong commitment to ending an affordability crisis that keeps too many people from living their American Dream.” — Mayor Eric Garcetti
