John,
Thousands of our neighbors have already been laid off due to the COVID-19 epidemic, and after the stay-at-home order goes into effect tomorrow, that number will rise dramatically.
I’m glad that Governor Carney is taking seriously the need for us to protect ourselves. But we need to protect the livelihoods of working families as well.
On April 1, many of us will have rent, mortgage, and loan payments due. As tens of thousands of people lose their jobs or see their hours cut back, they will also lose their ability to pay those bills.
An eviction moratorium until May 1 is a good first step, but we must ensure that the people of Delaware have stable housing through the coronavirus crisis.
Can you sign this petition asking Governor Carney to guarantee housing stability for Delawareans through this crisis by placing a moratorium on rent, mortgage, utility, and loan payments and housing the homeless?
