Jurado was there to ask council members for a six-month extension of the rent freeze on rent-stabilized units. Every year with rent-controlled units, the rents go up 3 percent, but the wages each year don't.
If elected, Jurado plans to tie rent control increases to wages, expand public housing, and support a vacancy tax on empty properties, focusing on housing issues in L.A.
