I don't get your point of "only issue..."
[What I meant to clarify was price controls and regulation have occured throughout history and have largely been upheld and ignored by the courts,but it's possible that the government forcing a property owner to keep renting to a tenant indefintely could be a rights issue especially if they want to take personal possession]
[Government regulates things all the time, a bit off topic but its legal to sleep with another consenting adult and perhaps have a third-party, but pay for it , even a few bucks or offer something in exchange, its a crime,even if both parties have no abuse history and or wealthy lavish earners]
Federal rent control was in the 1940's and essentially a WW2 provision. I think it expired around 1947-48 or so. Then there was statewide rent control, but that also eventually went away. The RC we have now comes from 1962 and the RS we have now goes back to 1969 or 1974 (there are two flavors), most of what you see is from 1974.
You might remember that President Nixon used price controls in the 1970's. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nixon_shock
There were three cases going to SCOTUS. On one case SCOTUS said they will not hear it, but the other two are up in the air. I know tenant attorneys are keeping an eye out in case the court decides to hear one or both of the other cases. SCOTUS can decide if it wishes, but it's becoming less and less likely.
There is a current case - not about RC/RS explicitly, but about how states use regulatory authority. (Google "supreme court chevron") and that might have an impact on any rule any state uses. In the last few days there have been many articles on this.
