Atlanta, Ga. — Ahead of the House’s vote on the Senate-passed housing affordability bill, Sen. Jon Ossoff is ramping up the pressure on his GOP U.S. Senate opponent, Trump loyalist Mike Collins, to support bipartisan legislation cracking down on large, out-of-state companies from buying up single-family homes.
“These out-of-state companies are buying up homes in Georgia and jacking up home prices and rents. My investigation revealed 30% of single-family rentals in metro Atlanta are now owned by out-of-state corporations. Mike Collins must vote immediately to pass the Senate bill that cracks down on corporate homebuying in Georgia,” said Sen. Ossoff.
Last month, Sen. Ossoff called out his Republican opponents for posturing as Trump’s puppets by supporting the president’s policies, which doubled health insurance premiums for more than a million Georgians and wreaked havoc on Georgia’s economy.
