Tenant advocates urge state leaders to pass Good Cause Eviction law

Brahvan Ranga, political director of grassroots advocacy group For The Many, said more needs to be done, namely, passing a statewide Good Cause Eviction law.

“Local leaders have stood up for tenants’ rights, and now those laws are being challenged,” Ranga said. “So now it’s up to the state Legislature to take action and pass this law. It would protect tenants from arbitrary evictions, protect them from predatory rent hikes and just give them that sense of security in their homes that they can live without fear.”
