Letter campaign on the Blanket Eviction bans

Seeing if anyone is interested in putting together a template that could be sent to state governors and the white House on the evictions bans. Come up with a better plan for evictions than the current blanket bans. Then everyone could use this and mail a copy to their local representative at both levels of government.

The current bans are terrible. In Florida alone you’re not allowed to do anything. No late fees, no eviction fees, no evictions, nada. Doesn’t matter if they lost income or not. It’s not right to hand over so much power to tenants who abuse the system. And now tenants are just planing on terminating leases once they have to start paying again. We have 50% paying when ever they feel like it. And being aggressive when reminded because they know there’s nothing anyone can do. They have already researched everything. I know a few fellow landlords that own buildings near ours also in the same situation.

This needs to change to only people in need.

    @Ayobami O. Well it worked in Florida. They said they had so much feedback from landlords he changed the law. Now we can evict if they can’t show proof the virus caused loss of income.
