加州选民通过两项住房公投 112.5亿美元债券获批
加利福尼亚州萨克拉门托县萨克拉门托市消息：加州选民在11月3日的中期选举中通过了两项住房相关公投，另有一项仍在计票中，结果于11月6日进一步明朗。
第1号提案授权加州发行112.5亿美元债券，用于资助保障性住房项目，其中包括退伍军人住房项目，截至11月6日得票率略高于六成。第37号提案同样以超过六成的支持率通过，该提案设立一项250亿美元贷款计划，为符合条件的中等收入购房者提供最高为房价17%的固定利率抵押贷款援助。
第三项住房议题、第45号提案仍未决出胜负：该提案拟修订《加州环境质量法》，缩短部分项目（包括住房项目）的环境审查时限；在已清点约65%选票的情况下，反对者占54.9%，支持者占45.1%。州长纽森此前已公开支持第1号提案。加州住房短缺长期推高房价与租金，这两项获批措施被视为缓解住房可负担性压力的重要一步。
California Voters Pass Two Housing Measures, Approving $11.25 Billion Bond
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California voters passed two housing-related ballot measures in the November 3 midterm elections, with a third still being counted as results grew clearer on November 6.
Proposition 1 authorizes California to issue $11.25 billion in bonds to fund affordable housing projects, including veterans housing programs, and was drawing slightly more than 60 percent support as of November 6. Proposition 37 also passed with more than 60 percent support; it creates a $25 billion loan program offering eligible moderate-income homebuyers fixed-rate mortgage assistance of up to 17 percent of a home's price.
A third housing measure, Proposition 45, remained undecided. It would amend the California Environmental Quality Act to shorten environmental review timelines for some projects, including housing. With about 65 percent of ballots counted, opponents led with 54.9 percent to supporters' 45.1 percent. Gov. Gavin Newsom had publicly backed Proposition 1. California's long-running housing shortage has pushed home prices and rents higher, and the two approved measures are seen as an important step toward easing affordability pressures.
