<https://www.progressivedemsofmass.org/forums/#2023_forum6>Progressive Democrats of Massachusetts is hosting a series of virtual forums to help all of us better understand the housing crisis in Massachusetts (and beyond) and envision meaningful strategies to address it. The first forum introduced the dimensions of this crisis and some key policies to explore. The second forum focused on how to keep people in their homes amid the challenges of excessively high rents, unceasing evictions, and the threat of foreclosure. If you missed either forum you can review the recordings here.<https://progressivedemsofmass.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ab2a603d41dbc1626617bff48&id=b2d3ba7879&e=145123718b> The third forum focuses on housing production. Creating more housing supply is an essential, but not sufficient, component to address our housing crisis. PDM’s expert panel of public officials who work on these issues will address restrictive zoning and the institutional biases that choke supply with focus on initiatives that expand upon the MBTA Communities Act, inclusionary zoning, streamlined regulations, and the role of local advocacy, informed by realistic and effective housing production plans. Panelists: Rep, Andy Vargas, 3rd Essex, Haverhill Eric Shupin, Chief of Policy, MA Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities Mayor Jared Nicholson, Lynn
