>When I get in the room with AHS, the very people tasked with oversight and protecting individuals....  They clearly state that they are unable to perform their state duties out of fear of retaliation from these property owners.

Do you have this on record? I'm not surprised but jeez. Somebody needs to step up and put an end to it, regardless of retaliation. What would this retaliation look like, anyhow?

"Retaliation" probably means the hotels saying "we're leaving the program, get these people out of here by close of business (or whatever the required notice is)." Sort of like the property owners in the Burlington area which have made the news for having substandard rental units, but AHS won't yank the funding because they don't want to lose access to dozens of the cheapest units around.

How about responding to that with like, “no, idiots, get your shit together or we’ll sue you for violating living standards” or something? There’s got to be something stronger than fear. This sounds stupid.
