Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez is pushing ahead with 21 measures aimed at controlling rental prices and increasing housing availability, despite a recent rejection of the proposals and his subsequent call for snap elections in November. The measures were re-presented and voted on in the Council of Ministers following their initial defeat. This move comes after Sánchez announced early elections for November, triggered by a lack of parliamentary support for the housing legislation. The package intends to address Spain’s ongoing housing affordability issues, specifically targeting rent increases. The government hopes these measures will increase the housing supply and provide relief for renters. The timing of the push, just before the election, positions housing as a key campaign issue in Spain. The future of the legislation remains uncertain following the upcoming vote.
