June 17, 2:35 p.m. A proposed California Senate bill could give out-of-work tenants in the state 10 years to pay back unpaid rent due to loss of income related to the coronavirus pandemic. The Democrat-backed proposal, Senate Bill 1410, was put forth by Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins, D-San Diego and Senate Majority Leader Bob Hertzberg, D-Van Nuys.
In effect, it would force a landlord to to make a deal with tenants, or a "rent stabilization agreement," before evicting them due to unpaid rent during the pandemic. It would then give renters until 2034 to make up the unpaid payments, in increments if needed. They could also be eligible for loan forgiveness. The state would assume the financial burden, and in exchange, landlords would receive 10 years of tax credits equal to the amount of rent unpaid by the tenant.
Should the tenant decide to pass on the deal, the landlord will need to get a signature-verified document to prove that he or she made an attempt to come to an agreement. The bill goes to a vote Thursday.

So renters and tenants can collude and rip off the tax payers. Sounds like a dandy plan.

None of that will help landlords who need to pay their Mortgage loans now.
And What’s to stop renters from declining to pay the landlord back and just moving away in a few years?
Typical Democrat plan. Not thought through, even to a basic elementary level.

A certain duck must be crapping in his pants about now.

That's where the government takes over and puts the taxpayers on the hook. Sort of like student loans all over again. That's why I mentioned the opportunity for landlords and renters to collude for profit.

That is definitely going to happen. Too much money for them to pass up.
