Urgent update on housing bills…

URGENT! Committee Votes
TOMORROW May 6, 2025
NOTE: One of our own Reps who has been vowing to preserve local control, has claimed that he gets NO emails on Housing. This is ridiculous since we have 1,300 people who are concerned about the possible loss of Single Family Neighborhoods FOREVER, just in
Bedford alone.

Let’s make a liar out of him! URGENT! 
Although their public hearings have been done, you can still voice your opinion on these bills by emailing the HOUSING COMMITTEE. They will be voting on whether to recommend these bills TOMORROW. We all suspect what the outcome will likely be, but we ask you to ask them to ITL (disapprove).
