How our endorsements work
Every YIMBY Action endorsement starts with local research and is ratified by a member vote.
01
Chapters do the research
Local members study the races, send questionnaires, and interview candidates about housing.
02
Members vote
Every endorsement, candidate or ballot measure, is ratified by a vote of YIMBY Action members, not staff.
