Backers of Proposition 33 argue that expanding rent control is urgently needed to alleviate the steep housing costs plaguing California, highlighting a desperate situation for tenants.
Opponents argue that imposing strict rent caps could worsen the housing shortage by discouraging new construction and causing many rental units to be taken off the market.
The debate over Proposition 33 is intensifying as housing costs rise, reflecting a significant shift in public opinion on housing issues, according to political experts.
Proposition 33 seeks to overturn the Costa-Hawkins Act, aiming to remove restrictions on rent control that currently apply only to older apartments and specific housing types.
