A newly introduced bill would overhaul the Tenant Protection Act of 2019, or AB 1482, by dramatically lowering the rent cap and applying the limit to previously exempt single-family homes.

The proposal, SB 567, by María Elena Durazo, D-Los Angeles, also would impose AB 1482’s “just cause” for eviction protections on Day 1 of the tenancy.

The proposed changes come just three years after the effective date of AB 1482, which Gov. Newsom has labeled the strongest statewide renter protection law in the nation.
