Support housing solutions for Washington.
HOUSING SOLUTIONS FOR WASHINGTON IN 2021
Make Housing Available and Affordable
It’s time for the residents of Washington across the state to come together and address the numerous obstacles associated with buying and owning a home. For most Washingtonians, homeownership is out of reach because of sky-high prices and low inventory. Whether you live in a rural area or a busy metro neighborhood, opportunities for homeownership simply don’t meet the need.
Practical, proven policies are available now to address this issue. As a state, we simply need to come together and make it happen.
This involves:
-
Greater emphasis on planning for the housing we need
-
Ensuring urban densities for housing are provided near transit
-
Providing long-term funding for long-term planning
Erase Out-Dated Racial Covenants
Did you know that many recorded deeds in Washington still include outdated, unenforceable racial covenants and deed restrictions that banned ownership based on race? It is high time to finally erase once and for all the blight of these racial covenants that remain on the books in many communities across the state.
Let’s come together as a community and reaffirm the opportunity for everyone to own a home of their own, and to feel safe, secure and welcome in their neighborhood.
Make sure your elected leaders pass a bill this year that requires local governments to review existing recorded documents to determine which properties have racial deed restrictions and inform all relevant property owner how to remove them.
