Jester Seeks AG Opinion On Texas Rent Decontrol Bill
Gov. Jester asked Attorney General Gen. Price Daniel for a legal opinion on House Bill 805 to determine if it can abolish federal rent control in Texas and allow local municipalities to impose rent limits. He will sign only if no legal objections are found, while delaying final action until the AG’s ruling. The move drew property owners and housing advocates to Austin and San Antonio urging support and calendar actions.
