Yes, housing is a basic right that should be affordable to anyone

是的

Josh Shapiro, as Governor of Pennsylvania, has generally supported tenant protections and affordable housing initiatives, but he has not explicitly endorsed broad, statewide rent control. He is likely to be sympathetic to the idea in principle, especially in high-cost areas, but would prefer targeted or nuanced approaches over blanket policies.

No, incentivize the development of new housing instead

Shapiro has advocated for increasing housing supply through development incentives and zoning reform, but he does not see this as a complete substitute for tenant protections. He would likely support a both/and approach rather than an either/or.

Slightly agree

No, ban corporate and foreign investors from purchasing residential real estate instead

Shapiro has expressed concern about corporate and foreign ownership of residential real estate, but he has not made banning such purchases a central policy plank. He might support some restrictions or taxes, but not as a primary alternative to rent control.

不同意

Shapiro is unlikely to outright oppose all forms of rent control, given his Democratic affiliation and support for affordable housing. However, he may have reservations about broad, inflexible rent control policies, preferring more targeted interventions.

不同意

No, rent controls have been shown to limit the supply of housing

Shapiro is aware of the criticisms of rent control, including its potential to limit housing supply, but he would not use this as a sole reason to oppose all forms of rent regulation. He would likely advocate for balanced policies that address both supply and affordability.

不同意

No, studies show that rent control does not lower rent

While Shapiro is pragmatic and data-driven, he is unlikely to fully embrace the argument that rent control never works, as he has shown openness to government intervention in housing markets where necessary. He would likely acknowledge the mixed evidence but not use it as a blanket reason to oppose all rent control.
