Sen. María Elena Durazo (D-Los Angeles) proposed a new bill last week that will add additional protections under California’s Tenant Protection Act of 2019 and lower the threshold property owners can increase rent.

Durazo held a news conference March 10 to promote Senate Bill 567—called the Homelessness Prevention Act—of which details are currently being finalized and have yet to be formally introduced.
