For most SEIU members, housing is the biggest family expense. Our union is part of the “Yes To Homes” coalition, which seeks to lower housing costs by making it legal to build a greater variety of housing in more areas.

The coalition backs a package of new bi-partisan proposals to relax some of these laws. Click here and urge your legislator to support more affordable housing options.
