SACRAMENTO UPDATE: Briefing on Proposed Laws by Our Sacramento Lobbyist

Get the Latest from AAGLA State Lobbyist, Kate Bell, Kate Bell Strategies

MORE THAN 2,600 NEW STATE LAWS HAVE BEEN PROPOSED IN 2023! Once again, dozens of these proposals are Housing Bills, which if passed, could be EXTREMELY detrimental to rental housing providers! If YOU are as concerned as we are about the next "shoe to drop" on housing providers, this is the webinar that YOU MUST ATTEND. During this webinar, our Sacramento-based lobbyist will update you on ALL THE LATEST LEGISLATIVE and 2024 BALLOT PROPOSALS and we will let you know our predictions on which of these may pass and might impact YOU and your investments in rental property. Learn what YOU can do to help us DEFEND the housing industry against these outlandish proposals.

Get the inside scoop from our lobbyist who is always there on the ground at our State's Capitol. Hear their latest insights about this year's legislative session and possible proposed bills that might make it to the Governor's desk. Planned Topics Include:

• The complete Sacramento update — both the few good and the many bad proposed bills impacting rental housing providers.
• What may get passed and why? What does the Apartment Association of Greater Los Angeles support or oppose, and what else are we watching?
• What's on the Governor's agenda for the rest of this year and next? How will the State's budget play into things?
• Learn about proposed bills regarding reduced security deposits, elimination of the Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act and "vacancy decontrol," new ADU regulations, restrictions on use of credit histories and criminal background checks in tenant screening, penalties for housing discrimination, more taxes, and much, much more!
• What can YOU, as a rental property owner, do to stop harmful legislation from passing in California? Do your part!
• And much, much more — your questions submitted prior to and during the webinar will drive the discussion.

This informative webinar will also address any questions that are submitted by you! After registering, you will have the opportunity to submit questions. Live Q&A will also be available during the webinar and we will do our best to consolidate and identify those questions that will benefit all attendees.
