John,
Late last month, the Supreme Court voted to end the eviction moratorium — effectively putting millions of families at risk of being evicted from their homes even as the pandemic continues to wreak havoc on our country.
Across the country, our unhoused neighbors are at more risk of assault, hunger, mental illness, and at a higher risk of contracting or dying from COVID-19. Thousands of people have already been forcibly removed from their homes. It’s blatantly clear that this decision, led by a Republican-packed Supreme Court, will put millions of more people in danger.
John, it’s crucial that we all keep the pressure on our elected officials to provide the solutions that truly meet the scale and scope of the issues our communities face. We must take immediate legislative steps to extend the eviction moratorium and solve the impending crisis created by this Supreme Court decision. Please add your name in support of extending the eviction moratorium today.

In August, I joined Rep. Cori Bush in a powerful demonstration of grassroots advocacy to extend the eviction moratorium. Together we stood outside of the Capitol with dozens of activists and supporters to demand justice for the millions of families who were at risk of losing their homes.
In the end, our grassroots movement for change was able to gain the support of the White House to enact a temporary eviction moratorium for our communities experiencing higher rates of COVID-19 transmission.
Yet just 23 days later, the Republican-packed Supreme Court decided that corporate and political interests are more important than the safety and security of our communities.
John, we all must take steps, as a Congress and as a community, to transform a system that puts profit over keeping our people safe and sheltered. Extending the eviction moratorium is the biggest step towards ensuring the safety of our communities. Please add your name to stand in support with me and our progressive coalition as we continue this fight.
Thank you for your support,
