Land of the million-dollar starter home could decide the fate of Congress

California is facing a housing crisis that is taking center stage in the most competitive House races in the state. From skyrocketing mortgage payments to exorbitant rents, the cost of housing has become a key issue for voters and candidates alike. Democrats, in particular, are focusing on housing as a central theme in their campaigns, hoping to offset the GOP’s advantage on economic concerns like inflation.

In California’s most competitive House districts, the median mortgage payments for newly purchased homes have increased by as much as 104 percent since 2019. The median listed monthly rent in these areas has also seen significant spikes, rising by as much as $850. These statistics reflect the real struggles that constituents are facing on the ground.

Both Republicans and Democrats are vying for the upper hand on the housing issue. Democrat Will Rollins, in his rematch against GOP Rep. Ken Calvert, has made housing a central focus of his campaign. Rollins is proposing specific policies to lower housing costs, such as cracking down on corporations buying up housing stock and passing a tax credit for first-time homebuyers.

On the other side, Calvert and other Republicans are pushing back, linking their Democratic opponents to high taxes and failed policies that they claim have contributed to California’s housing crisis. The battle over housing has become a key battleground in these hotly contested races, with both parties trying to sway voters with their respective platforms.

Democrats are emphasizing the need to increase housing supply, following in the footsteps of Vice President Kamala Harris, who has made building 3 million new units a central part of her platform. Republicans, on the other hand, are focusing on protecting property tax protections like Proposition 13 and framing their opponents as supporters of higher taxes and government overreach.

Despite the back and forth, both parties acknowledge that housing is a critical issue that voters care deeply about. The outcome of these races could have far-reaching implications for future housing policies at both the state and federal levels. Regardless of the results, this election cycle has highlighted the urgent need to address California’s housing crisis and find solutions that work for all residents.
