Issues
Housing and tenant rules
State law already has a good cause eviction law and, since a law signed in October 2025, bars helping residential landlords agree not to compete on rentals, including through pricing software that coordinates them. The Legislature decides whether to adjust, extend or narrow those tenant rules.
In coverage
Voted for a 2025 law that bars helping residential landlords agree not to compete on rentals, including through pricing software that coordinates them, and against a 2026 Senate bill making technical changes to the state's good cause eviction law, which passed the Senate 40-21.
