The provision itself does nothing more than assign a name — the 'Rent Control Preemption Act' — to the broader statute. The substantive rules and prohibitions are found in the Act's other sections, which this title provision introduces.

Knowing the Act's official title helps operators correctly identify and reference the statute when reviewing compliance obligations or researching local ordinance authority.
