Big news for renters in NYC! A freeze on rents for one-year and two-year leases for rent-stabilized units.

[Peter Sterne @petersterne]

As expected, the Rent Guidelines Board voted to freeze the rent on both one- and two-year leases for rent-stabilized units.

The RGB is independent, but Mayor Mamdani appointed a majority of board members to fulfill his campaign promise to "freeze the rent."

The budget includes an expansion & a 2-year extension of the Musical & Theatrical Production Tax Credit! This is a huge win for Broadway musicians. TY @govhochul Speaker Heastie, Majority Leader Stewart-Cousins & @LizKrueger for ensuring a stronger #Broadway & theater industry.

[Governor Kathy Hochul @GovKathyHochul]

New Yorkers deserve a government that’s in their corner: One that fights for working people, delivers real results, and improves everyday lives. That’s exactly what our budget accomplishes.
