Affordable housing options are already rare in D.C. – and if the Council of DC doesn’t pass regulations to rein in commercially short-term rentals – families like Yukia’s will continue to fact the impacts. Learn more: itstimeDC.com

From the mouth of #Airbnb’s CEO: “The basic premise we want is that if a city is in a housing constraint… we want people to rent the homes they live in, not take units off the market.” So if Airbnb’s CEO supports Council of DC’s short-term rental legislation – why doesn’t Airbnb?

Local mom Yukia Hugee calls on Council of DC to stand up for residents across #DC working multiple jobs just to pay rent – by passing common-sense short-term rental legislation to address the many illegal hotels plaguing our neighborhoods and driving up rent costs.
