Proposition 10 (California)

Proposition 10, on California's 2018 ballot, aimed to repeal restrictions on rent control established in 1995, allowing local governments to implement broader rent control measures on residential properties of any age. This would enable cities to limit rent increases and regulate tenants' rights more effectively, addressing affordability issues. Opponents argued it could lead to reduced property investment and maintenance, while supporters believed it would protect tenants from excessive rent hikes. Ultimately, Proposition 10 sought to expand local authority over rent regulations to improve housing stability for tenants.
