RENT IS DUE TODAY! Make sure you know your rights if you’re worried about being evicted. A new law protects you and also could provide 100% rent forgiveness. #RentIsDue #ProtectAllRenters #SB91 medium.com/@publicadvocates/…

"If we do not address the root problems that have surfaced from this pandemic, we are going to see these societal problems root down even deeper." @PublicCounsel Attorney Katie McKeon @KJGMac11 on why we must act NOW for stronger #tenant protections. #ProtectAllRenters #RentIsDue

SB 91 is discriminatory- Landlords can choose whether to absolve a portion of a tenant’s Covid-19 rent debt using SB 91 funds or instead evict them. Lord have mercy! #CALeg & @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom, #ProtectAllRenters #RentIsDue
#RentIsDue Despite the passing of #SB91, landlords can still forgo state rental assistance, take tenants to court and press to evict them. CA needs a comprehensive rent relief program for all renters. bit.ly/3sgpNp4 @GavinNewsom #ProtectAllRenters
“The number one reality is evictions are still happening in lockdown,” said Shanti Singh @TenantsTogether. Despite renter protections amid #COVID19, some landlords now are exploiting loopholes in the law to evict tenants. @GavinNewsom #RentIsDue bit.ly/3ujPbfr
At @AntiochCAgov's special meeting, we are demanding #Justice4AngeloQuinto, for elected leaders to #DefundAntiochPD, and investment in the #MilesHall 24/7 mental health crisis response team NOW. #ReimaginePublicSafety
