  1. I’m in agreement with Ford, why would we need a state standard for landlord-tenant relationships? Much like the bill last week regarding Marion County zoning, the state legislature needs to stay out of matters that don’t concern them.

  2. A lease is a contract between two private parties, why should the government be allowed to interfere in matters where two private parties are concerned. States that have enacted such laws (California & NY are one such examples), have encountered
    increased rents, housing shortages, increased homelessness, it is detrimental for developers if they can’t get a proper return on their investments, thereby housing stock starts to decrease.

    1. The government regulates many aspects of business relationships and contracts to protect the public and prevent fraud, coercion, and unjust arrangements. For example, the government does not allow children to be exploited in the workplace, or anyone to be sexually harassed, or a business to refuse to hire someone based on the applicants race. You could argue an employee arrangement is a contract between private parties, so why should the government interfere, but the answer is that it is in the best interest of society for the government to regulate certain aspects of private contractual relationships to prevent abuse.

      Also, your reference to NY and CA laws is specious BS. NY and CA have rent control, which is an entirely different sort of regulation.

      Finally, this attempt to eliminate basic tenant protections is just another example of overreach and callous disregard for what is right by the corrupt fools and corporate puppets in the General Assembly. The voters need to remember this clownery at election time and vote everyone of these yahoos who supported it out of office and out on the street on their fat behinds.

    1. You’re not voting for less, you’re just voting for a different master. Don’t be one of those people whining about the federal minimum wage increase and saying states should have the right to set their own wages… then turn around and say the state legislature should make it impossible for localities to have their own rules on renters. What makes sense in Indianapolis might not make sense in Gas City or Winchester or Terre Haute… but the state of Indiana is mandating everything is the same.

      At that point, why even have cities and towns? Just have central government from Sandlinville.
