AI Summary
This bill expands the authority of city attorneys in cities with over 750,000 residents to prosecute violations of antitrust laws, similar to the powers already held by the Attorney General and district attorneys, allowing them to initiate civil actions, recover damages, and retain a portion of the proceeds for expenses. It also modifies the existing price gouging law, which prohibits excessive price increases on essential goods and services during declared states of emergency, by clarifying the types of repairs that can justify rent increases and expanding the definition of "housing" to include all rental properties regardless of lease term, while also establishing a specific calculation for daily rental rates that were not previously offered.
