Rent-setting algorithms have become a target of consumer protection advocates in recent years, who say they effectively enable landlords to collude and drive up the cost of housing
In his veto letter, Polis said he agreed with the intent of the bill, writing that “collusion between landlords for purposes of artificially constraining rental supply and increasing costs on renters is wrong.”
But, he said, such practices are already illegal under Colorado’s Antitrust Act, and “violators should be held accountable” under existing law.
You stupid fuck. Even if the law is entirely redundant, you pass it, take credit for it, drop the hammer on the price-fixing landlords, and become a public hero. Simple fucking politics.

Fucking Democrats.
This only works if you aren’t counting on those landlords to contribute to your campaign.
Gotta get those donation matches from somewhere.
