On this episode of the Infill Podcast, we’re giving listeners an inside look at YIMBY Action’s new Scorecards for statewide elected officials, starting with Virginia. Rising housing prices are a huge concern for American voters. YIMBY Action’s Scorecards will be a critical tool for residents to understand which elected officials are taking bold action on housing, so we can make our neighborhoods more affordable for everyone.

In this discussion, we’ll talk to the architect behind the first YIMBY Action Scorecard, our very own Senior Campaigns Manager Joh Gehlbach. We’ll discuss what these Scorecards tell voters, what we’re already learning from this Virginia iteration, and how this tool will help voters and advocates cut through the noise and hold legislators accountable.
