2023 is the year both the legislature and the governor have made addressing Washington's housing crisis a top priority, with a slew of proposed bills. Two top experts join us to help unpack and explain some of the more prominent pieces of legislation:

- Jesse Simpson, Government Relations and Policy Manager with the Housing Development Consortium of Seattle-King County

- Anna Fahey, Senior Director of Communications and Campaigns with the Sightline Institute

*Note: When referring to the number of housing units that the state needs to build right now, Anna means 140,000 when she says 140.
