This is not rent control, it’s a tax disincentive. Throughout history, the government has provided tax write-offs to incentivize corporate investors to develop certain industries. Why should it not eliminate those write-offs when those corporations make record profits while hardworking Americans struggle to put a roof over their head? Federal resources should go toward building new housing, mortgage relief, freeing up federal lands for affordable housing, and helping lower rents — not to corporate shareholders. “This work builds on my bipartisan bill to expand housing projects on public lands, and Rep. Horsford’s legislation that I co-sponsored that will further crack down on corporate price gouging in the housing industry. “This announcement is a good start and there is still more work to be done to address the many complex causes of our housing crisis.” 1 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z 2026-04-06T18:32:29Z
