Housing. Petition gathers over 10,000 signatures and will be delivered to parliament

A petition advocating for rental price regulation and an end to evictions has surpassed 10,000 signatures and will be submitted to parliament. Launched in 2022, it outlines ten demands, including maximum rent ceilings based on salaries and living costs, and measures to protect tenants. The petition emphasizes that the state should not reward those treating homes as financial assets and highlights the ongoing housing crisis in Portugal. The group behind the petition criticizes the government's proposed rental law, arguing that it fails to address the needs of those seeking affordable housing.
