Eric Guerra is a current Sacramento City Councilmember, community volunteer, policy advocate, husband and father. Eric’s life has been defined by hard work and determination. As a farmworker, an immigrant, and a graduate of Sacramento State, Eric worked hard to get where he is today, but he had a lot of help along the way. He knows that people sometimes simply need a hand up from those who believe in them.
The housing crisis is pricing people out of the communities they call home. Eric Guerra knows this isn’t sustainable. He believes we must tackle the housing crisis by addressing affordability that is driven by historic lack of supply compounded by the failure to build more housing. He knows we must investment in permanent housing, rental assistance and helping first-time homebuyer afford loans to level the housing market to prevent forcing longtime residents out of our Sacramento County cities and the county itself.
