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.

The No on Prop 10 campaign is putting a lot of effort and money into defeating the measure. Steven Maviglio joins us with the argument against Prop 10.
