Let's Repeal the Costa Hawkins Rental Law! Join tenants and tenant advocates for a rally followed by march to the State Building Costa Hawkins is the main state law that incentives landlords to harass and push out long-time tenants to spike the rents to rates most of us can't afford. AB 1506, the assembly bill calling for the repeal of Costa Hawkins, is in the Assembly Housing Committee, chaired by Assemblyman David Chiu. We need a vote on AB-1506 to get it out of committee and on to the full assembly.
