There has to be a catch. This is too pragmatic and logical.

NEW: Just issued an Executive Order that will allow victims of the SoCal fires to not get caught up in bureaucratic red tape and quickly rebuild their homes.

We are also extending key price gouging protections to help make rebuilding more affordable.

Gavin Newsome issuing an Executive Order that ensures that the housing crisis isn’t accidentally alleviated during reconstruction is just too on the nose. https://t.co/CfmDhYxK8I

Here’s one take https://x.com/zackkanter/status/1878530187949723908?s=46

My take is that this is all talk until we see action behind it

And rarely does Newsome follow his words with actions

Why do you think we should limit rebuilds to their original size?

My gut says this is silly and we should let people rebuild what they want, but curious to hear your perspective

that part of the order feels totally reasonable imo
