Issue Position: Creating a Livable and Workable California

As the 6th Largest Economy, California is flexing its muscles at an incredible pace. However, with this growth comes serious responsibilities. In the absence of any significant federal action on America's infrastructure, we have much work to do to fix our roads, bridges and highways. Even more, with the average cost of a home in the Bay Area well over $700,000 and the highest rates of homelessness of any state in the nation California's need for affordable housing solutions remains a serious challenge to our future growth. Bob Wieckowski has proven to be an effective legislator who brings innovative solutions to the table to advance California's progressive agenda in housing and transportation. Bob is leading the charge by:
Authoring bipartisan backed legislation returning power to a homeowner by eliminating burdensome regulations to increase the building of accessory dwelling units (ADU's)
Authoring legislation expanding the creation of transit oriented development near BART stations, bringing an estimated 20,000 additional units to the Bay Area
Bringing billions of dollars to alleviate traffic and improve local roads, public transportation, and highways, while promoting walking and bicycling
Advocating for the expansion of BART to Milpitas and San Jose, and the study of a transfer station of BART and ACE systems in Fremont
