SACRAMENTO – Senator Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) introduced SB 532 - legislation to improve voter transparency into the financial implications of ballot measures. SB 532 allows ballot measures to disclose their financial impacts in the voter information guide rather than the 75-word ballot label, which does not offer sufficient space to clearly explain complex financial measures.

SACRAMENTO – Senator Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) introduced Senate Bill 423, legislation to extend and strengthen existing law streamlining and accelerating housing permits in areas that underperform their housing targets. SB 423 removes the sunset on SB 35 (Wiener, 2017), which is set to expire at the end of 2025. It also expands that law’s ability to deliver mixed-income housing developments and broadly benefit construction workers through changes to SB 35’s labor provisions.
