2022 Legislation Doesn't Inspire As Much Passion

Needless to say, many land use bills introduced in Sacramento do not lend themselves to elevator pitches. They are complex, bureaucratic, and filled with clause after clause of minutiae. The 2022 session features plenty such bills (e.g. Assembly Bill 2234, which concerns "post-entitlement phase permits"). But many other bills this year are unusually likely to capture the average Californian's imagination--especially if that Californian is looking for a place to live.
