Summary
The bill removes the existing prohibition that stops political subdivisions and home‑rule municipalities from establishing rent‑control rules on privately owned property. By repealing Section 47‑8A‑1 of the NMSA, cities and towns could now set limits on rent increases. This change could affect landlords, tenants, and local housing policy across New Mexico.
