Today Governor Cuomo announced that he was suspending mortgage payments for 90 days but he has done nothing to help renters. Click here and join 15,000+ New Yorkers and demand New York suspends rent, mortgage and utility payments immediately.

Friend,

In a global pandemic that has shut down major cities across the country, housing is health care. We need to stay in our homes to protect ourselves and our communities. Nearly 100,000 people in New York were homeless before  the crisis. Now, so many New Yorkers have lost income in this crisis that the unemployment website has crashed. And yet, while the majority of New Yorkers are renters, Governor Cuomo has failed to protect our homes.

Click here to sign our petition demanding protections for renters, homeowners and homeless New Yorkers alike.

Last week we demanded a moratorium on evictions and we won. No one should lose their homes in the middle of a global health crisis. But this is not enough. If that state can suspend mortgage payments for the duration of this crisis, the state can also act to protect tenants.

We need to house the homeless, protect tenants and ensure there are no utility shut offs during this unprecedented crisis.Click here and join our petition.
