Zohran Freezes Rent for 2 Million New Yorkers—but it is Only One Step Towards Solving the Housing Crisis

Zohran Freezes Rent for 2 Million New Yorkers—but it is Only One Step Towards Solving the Housing Crisis

by Nik M.

Nik M. argues that the freeze marks the beginning, not the end, of a broader struggle over housing and public ownership.
