Excellent! Apartments near train stations is a no-brainer 🚉🏢

We need to make this happen. So, I think the best step is to remove rapid bus lines from the bill. Restricting to fixed rail only would still do a whole lot of good - ex. North Berkeley Bart station - while not upsetting the suburbanites. We can get to them next. Learn from the last failure.

@tenantstogether.bsky.social looking forward to your support on this important bill to address the high cost of housing, especially for our state’s most vulnerable residents.
