Tenant associations are complaining about the fact that there are people who want to remove the rent regulation that allows apartments to be decontrolled when the rent goes over $2,000 a month and the tenant earns $175,000 a year for two years running.
How many poor and middle-class people do you know who pay $2,000 a month rent and earn $175,000 a year for two years in a row? If the wealthy people occupying these rentals are tossed out, it will allow for others to rent the premises.
