    2015 CA Summit - Rescuing the California Dream: Policies for an Affordable Future

    Evelyn Larrubia, Sean Burton, Scott Laurie, Manuel Pastor, Van Ton-Quinlivan

    Speakers Scott Laurie, Manuel Pastor, and Sean Burton characterize Los Angeles as the nation's least affordable rental market, where severe supply constraints and regulatory hurdles have severed the link between housing production and growing household demand. Panelists identify critical bottlenecks including a collapse in construction activity, the wealth-exclusionary impacts of Proposition 13, and a shifting labor market that leaves high school graduates without viable employment pathways. To address these crises, the experts advocate for a coordinated cross-sector strategy integrating community college workforce training, streamlined entitlement processes for density, and proactive business leadership to stabilize wages and housing access.
