Legislative Update - May 29, 2025
State Legislative Update
SCRHA continues to lobby against legislation that would significantly harm the industry and make it harder to do business. Unfortunately, last week, SB 448 (Umberg), the CalRHA-sponsored and SCRHA-supported bill to make it easier to remove squatters, was held in the Senate Appropriations Committee. While it won’t move forward this year, it can come back next year. Next week will be a busy week of floor sessions as legislators try to meet the June 6 deadline for bills to get out of their house of origin. This also means that SCRHA will likely be asking you to make your voice heard. Make sure you are signed up for Action Alerts so you can contact your elected representatives!
