Talking with Henrietta: Rent Increases - An Ongoing Struggle

Three guests discuss with show host Henrietta J. Burroughs whether city rent ordinances, which dictate the amount of rent increases a property owner can charge, are a practical and necessary means of keeping apartment rents affordable. The guests on this show, who are working on the side of East Palo Alto, CA tenants, maintain that such ordinances are absolutely necessary for keeping East Palo Alto a diverse community where all income groups can live.
