Join co-hosts The Housing Action Coalition, The Ezra Klein Show, Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, and the San Francisco Foundation for the California Gubernatorial Candidate Housing Forum, a live, nonpartisan policy discussion with leading candidates in the 2026 gubernatorial race.
Moderated by Ezra Klein, Opinion writer and host of The Ezra Klein Show at The New York Times, the forum will explore what it will actually take to solve the state's housing shortage, displacement, and affordability crisis. The conversation will be broadcast on New York Times channels and featured on The Ezra Klein Show — bringing California's housing future to a national audience.
State Assemblymember Buffy Wicks will open the evening with remarks.
The forum will be fashioned as a policy discussion, guided by Ezra Klein, with questions and follow-ups that no candidate, campaign, or group will see beforehand.
Doors Open: 3:00pm
