SAVE OUR CITIES

Protecting our communities from Sacramento’s overreach and moneyed interests profiting at the expense of our safety and quality of life.

Across California, a tidal wave of aggressive housing mandates is reshaping our cities without our consent. In just the last decade, hundreds of state laws have stripped away local planning, overridden fire-safety standards, sidestepped environmental protections, and opened the door for moneyed interests to reshape our neighborhoods for profit. The result is irreversible—and in many places already unfolding: strained infrastructure, overcrowded schools, dangerous traffic conditions, declining livability, and the loss of the very character and safety that make our communities home.

If Sacramento’s current trajectory continues, California will become a permanent renter state—where generational wealth is impossible to build, local voices are silenced, and neighborhoods bear the cost of policies designed far from the people who live with their consequences.

  • Local Stewardship

    Local Stewardship means decisions made closest to the people—made with care—produce the best outcomes. It’s the ethic that communities, not distant agencies, are best equipped to guide growth, protect character, and sustain opportunity.

  • Local Context

    Local Context means every community is unique—its geography, infrastructure, and history define what is possible. Policy grounded in local knowledge creates solutions that fit the ground they serve, not one-size-fits-all mandates from afar.

  • Local Equity

    Local Equity protects the opportunity for people to build and remain in the communities they call home. It resists extractive models that transfer wealth and control away from neighborhoods, ensuring that the next generation can build homeownership and stability where they grew up.
