Andrew Cuomo is testing out running for mayor on the platform that people who live in rent-stabilized apartments should have a harder time renewing their lease.
So it turns out that Cuomo's slam at Mamdani's lodgings wasn't just a know-nothing misrepresentation of homelessness, rent control, and rent stabilization, it was also a stealth boosting of the landlord lobby's coming messaging on why rent stabilization should be gutted.
A top executive at the landlord lobby echoes Andrew Cuomo's call to means-test rent-stabilized housing.
It's a look into the kind of messaging the real estate lobby could use to try to undermine Zohran Mamdani's popular call to freeze the rent.
