about gentrification and the displacement of tenants, putting language in SB 50 that would allow implementation to be delayed until 2025 in higher poverty neighborhoods.

“It will affect the bad-actor cities around L.A. that are using local control to keep themselves wealthy and free of minorities,” he said.
