California is one of just a handful of states that allows rent control, but the price caps on rent are limited by the Costa-Hawkins act of the mid-1990s.
So it should surprise no one that the limits on rent control are being challenged in the November election. Proposition 10 would repeal Costa-Hawkins, allowing more flexibility for cities to put controls on rents.
The Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment and the Yes on Prop 10 campaign support the repeal. Guests from both organizations lay out the argument in favor of passing the measure.
