Rent Stabilization Protection Amendment Act of 2025

This bill removes an exemption that previously allowed rental units occupied by tenants using tenant-based subsidies (like housing vouchers) to be excluded from rent stabilization rules. It requires housing providers to notify subsidy administrators (e.g., HUD or DC housing agencies) before raising rents, and prohibits agreements that waive rent stabilization requirements. Subsidy administrators gain the right to challenge inappropriate rent increases and cannot deny reasonable increases that comply with the program. These changes directly affect tenants in subsidized housing, housing providers, and subsidy administrators, ensuring rent hikes for these units follow District rent stabilization rules.
