If Democrats take back the House, Dan Goldman will lead the push to lower renters' costs by cracking down on junk fees and predatory practices.
Occurrences
Evidence
The campaign page says, "When Democrats take back the House this November, Dan will lead the push to... Lower costs for renters by cracking down on junk fees and predatory practices."
Congress.gov shows H.R. 4907, the End Junk Fees for Renters Act, was introduced in the 118th Congress on 07/26/2023 and its latest action was referral to subcommittee; the bill status is Introduced.
Congress.gov shows H.R. 4100 was introduced on 06/24/2025 and remained in introduced/referred status, with Goldman listed among the House members supporting the bill in the Congressional Record history.
Goldman’s office said he "joined" the End Junk Fees for Renters Act, describing it as a bill to end "excessive and predatory junk fees" that increase renters’ costs nationwide.
Assessments
Goldman publicly backed and joined the End Junk Fees for Renters Act in the 118th Congress, matching the promised policy push against renter junk fees and predatory practices. However, the bill remained only introduced/referred and did not become law or otherwise deliver the promised renter-cost crackdown. Because there was a serious legislative effort but the promised outcome was not achieved, this is best rated as never with an effort badge.
