About us
About Abundant Housing L.A. California is in the midst of a housing crisis. Decades of resistance to new housing, especially in coastal communities, have resulted in unbearably high rents, worsened inequality, and displacement of low-income residents. Los Angeles County especially needs much more housing, for people of all incomes, near our growing transit system and major employment centers, if we ever hope to reverse these trends. Abundant Housing LA is committed to education and advocacy on the affordability, livability, and sustainability benefits of more housing. We want lower rents and a more sustainable and prosperous region, where everyone has more choices of where to live and how to pursue their dreams. Density, when well planned, can enhance the social and economic life of the city. We do educational outreach for policies, plans, and individual projects that improve the lives of all. We welcome anyone who shares these goals to join us.

Over the course of this year, Abundant Housing LA has joined with many organizations to form a broad coalition urging the City to include Single-Family zones in the Citywide Housing Incentive Program (CHIP). This past Tuesday, the Council moved the CHIP forward while maintaining the Ordinance’s exclusion of Single-Family zones. Abundant Housing LA is deeply disappointed by this result, but unfortunately, not surprised. We want to be clear: Angelenos can no longer wait for action on housing affordability. We need to build more housing now, of all types, in all neighborhoods. We know what to do: we need to end apartment bans and make it easier to build critically needed housing. Now we need political leaders that are brave enough to do it. We want to thank Councilmembers Raman and Hernandez for their leadership in this fight, and Councilmembers Harris-Dawson, Price, and Jurado for their support. Read our full statement below.

Last week, I had the wonderful opportunity to celebrate with Brian Hanlon as Abundant Housing LA and California YIMBY co-hosted the 2024 LA Victory Party. It was such a great way to celebrate the remarkable progress our movement has made, and get energized about the opportunities ahead to make housing more affordable. I'm proud to have co-hosted this event with our friends at Cal Yimby, and am excited for more close collaborations ahead! I want to congratulate our honorees Laura Friedman and John M. Erickson, Ph.D. We were proud to be able to celebrate their bravery and vision in making California a more affordable and acessible place to live. A big thank you to our host and co-host sponsors Donna Shen Tripp and Jim Ries at Craig Lawson & Co., LLC, Edgar Khalatian at Mayer Brown, and Dave Rand and Elisa Paster at Rand Paster & Nelson LLP.

Last Thursday, Governor Newsom signed AB 2667, Abundant Housing LA's first successful piece of sponsored legislation! AB 2667 strengthens Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing by establishing clear reporting standards, increases transparency in the Site Inventory process, and requires jurisdictions to report annually on where new housing units are being permitted and built. AHLA is grateful for the partnership of our co-sponsor, Inner City Law Center, the impactful research and collaboration of Paavo Monkkonen and Aaron Barrall, as well as the leadership of the bill's author, Assemblymember Miguel Santiago!
