Our community is disproportionately out of work, with a stay at home order, panicking about looming rent/mortgages. We need Emergency Housing Protections NOW.  

The Tacoma Tenants Organizing Committee along with the Washington State Tenants Union demand our representatives enact these policies now:

• 90-day Moratorium on Evictions, Foreclosures & Utility Shut-offs; Close the Loop-hole on Pay or Vacate Notices;
• Three year Moratorium on Rent Increases;
• Moratorium on Accumulation of Late Fees;
• 90-day Rent & Mortgage Freeze;
• Protect the Safety of the Most Vulnerable, the Unhoused;
• Push for statewide measures to uphold permanent protections of all tenants across Washington State:
  • Lifting the Constitutional Ban on Rent Control Enact statewide;
  • Rent Control similar to Oregon and California’s recent meas ;
  • Just Cause Protections.
