A group of 100 clergy members urged their congregants in a letter dated Monday to approve four measures appearing on the general election ballot, which they say would make it easier for the city to quickly build desperately needed affordable housing, amNewYork has learned.

In the missive, shared with amNewYork ahead of its release, the clergy members argue the measures are a sure-fire way to stem the ever-increasing cost and dwindling supply of housing across the five boroughs.
