Albany Passes Historic Rent Protections
Michael Gianaris, New York State Senator and deputy majority leader (D – Queens 12th), and Yuh-Line Niou, New York Assembly Member (D WF 65, Lower East Side) talk about the landmark deal reached over tenant protections and rent reform, and other hot button bills as the countdown clock ticks down to the end of session in Albany.
@BrianLehrer Chris complaining about the cost of updating machinery is BS.
It's the cost of doing business.
@BrianLehrer Little sympathy for small landlords really. They are most likely making money on the backs of NYers. Cut into the profits for the first time EVER? If you are losing money on the building then sell it and cut your losses!
