As millions of Americans are suffering from the lack of affordable housing, Sam Zell and his Equity Property mgmt has been lobbying congress to abolish Rent Control laws and Below Market Rate Programs. The Supreme Court was scheduled to hear a case on the legality of Rent Control, but, did not this session. But the story hardly ends there.
Why is this important?
This petition is to alert residents to the fact that the largest property management company in the country, Equity Residential Properties, is attempting to dismantle Rent Control laws and Below Market Rate programs as millions of Americans are suffering from lack of affordable housing. I am currently a victim of their attempt to dismantle the Below Market Rate program in San Francisco despite being granted tax free bonds to build properties in San Francisco for the last 25 years.
