Quick Update: the Bill Passes
Hey all,
Thank you to all of you who read yesterday’s email and sent an email to the state legislature. Because of the overwhelming sentiment that we need to offer a fair pathway out of rental debt before January 31st, the bill passed with overwhelming support:
This, of course, does not mean this issue is over. It is essential to make sure that all our neighbors have access to this relief. Like I said last time, there are two handy tools to help individual people get into this rent relief program:
Stay Housed LA is a tool that folks can use to learn about the current rules and draft a letter to their landlord that documents their situation and will help them get into a repayment plan
2021 Rent Relief Notification Signup will help folks get notified as soon as the state plan is fully rolled out
Please, let me know if there is anyone who needs assistance with this! Otherwise, look forward to more from me next week!
Thomas
