Yes on Proposition 33:
WHAT: California Response to President Biden’s July 16th
press conference calling on Congress to institute a five percent
rent cap on corporate landlords.
WHO: Interviews available upon request with
Congressmember Ro Khanna, Co-Chair of the Yes on Proposition 33
Rent Control campaign, in response to President Biden’s national
rent cap proposal.
Congressmember Khanna will speak to how California can address
similar unaffordable rents within the state.
WHY: In response to skyrocketing rents, President Biden
is imploring Congress to institute a five percent national rent cap
on corporate landlords who own 500 units or more. In California,
voters can address corporate landlords’ exorbitant rent increases
by passing Proposition 33, an initiative on the November 5th ballot
which will allow local governments to expand rent control to
stabilize communities.
Proposition 33, sponsored by AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF)
and now endorsed by more than 100 elected and formerly elected
officials in California, is just 23 words: "The state may not limit
the right of any city, county, or city and county to maintain,
enact or expand residential rent control.”
