- I will mention that during the course of developing and working on this legislation, we spent a lot of time working with landlords and housing providers to make sure that there were exemptions for small housing providers, to make sure that there were exemptions for landlords if the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development isn’t moving paperwork fast enough. We addressed the concerns that were raised by landlords in the process, and I think what we have before us now is a proposal that is a compromise that will be good for the housing industry, but that also most importantly and most crucially will open up opportunities to these families who just need a safe place to live. I encourage you to support this legislation. This is going to be good for low-income families, it’s going to be good for families who are looking to get their kids into better schools, this is going to be good for keeping neighborhoods stable, and I urge a “yes” vote.
