Congresswoman Cori Bush and I, along with our Congressional Progressive Caucus colleagues, recently gathered on the steps of the U.S. Capitol to fight for the extension of the national eviction moratorium. In response, the Biden administration announced a new 60-day federal moratorium on evictions in areas of the country ravaged by the Delta variant. On August 27th, the Supreme Court cruelly ended the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) nationwide eviction moratorium.
On Wednesday, September 15, at 5:30pm, I will be holding a Renters' Rights Workshop that will cover renters' rights, as well as provide updates on the federal Emergency Rental Assistance program. Additionally, individuals will have the opportunity to connect with a tenant advocate or attorney through one-on-one informational sessions.
The event is free and open to the public. RSVP is required.
