From @BarackObama: 'Frankly, some very well-intentioned laws and regulations at the local level, often generated from the left and from my own party,...make it very difficult to integrate communities and allow people to live close to where they work."https://t.co/40i12JVh7W

David Garcia @TernerCenter @UCBerkeley discusses how people of color face discrimination when building ADUs in the same areas that traditionally resist other types of new housing. ADUs can be a way to build equity and wealth, but access to financing is also a must. #housingequity pic.twitter.com/vWsxfqPqvi

Samar Jha @AARPpolicy: "Passing ADU legislation does not mean ADUs are going to be popping up the next day - it takes time for that." AARP has supported ADU reform implementation across the country with education efforts and grant programs. pic.twitter.com/KBMOLWJYQM

Kelly Marrocco @FreddieMacSF says her org. spent months exploring need from the market on ADU financing and learned there was interest in the use of rental income to help qualify for mortgages. This and other research led to expansion that allows ADUs on 2 & 3 unit properties. pic.twitter.com/g8GuTBzHQf
