Can't stress enough how basically banning people from renting single family homes (which is the flip side of banning companies from renting them out) is basically economic redline with lefty vibes (only the well off can live in suburbs). Sadly I think that is why it is so popular.

A major housing bill that would discourage building rental homes “reflects a peculiar type of American populism that combines a right-wing fetish for suburbia’s homeowner society with a left-wing distrust of investment capital,” Henry Grabar argues.
The housing bill now in Congress may seek to increase the housing supply—but not for renters.
