Barkis Breakdown: Housing policy has always been a passion and priority
In this edition of the Barkis Breakdown, Rep. Andrew Barkis, R-Olympia, talks about one of his passions and priorities – housing. There’s a common theme he’s noticed in housing policy this session: good policy is not making it through the process. He believes our housing crisis is only getting worse, and lawmakers cannot remain divided on this issue if they want to solve the problem. He also talks about several bills he’s sponsored, and co-sponsored, this session in his attempts to address the affordable housing crisis and supply shortage.
