The New Orleans City Council, last week unanimously passed a “Healthy Homes” ordinance to create new protections for renters. Some housing advocates say the law was significantly pared down and wasn’t worth passing while other said it was a good start to protecting renters.
On Tuesday, voters in New Orleans granted the City Council oversight of the Mayor for some key hiring decisions.
Our guests this week are Lens reporters Joshua Rosenberg, Michael Isaac Stein and editor Marta Jewson.
