That’s why it is critical that we #PassStatewideRTC – so the right to an attorney is upheld and enforced in every eviction court across the state. We’re grateful for @SenatorRJackson's leadership and commitment to making sure this protection reaches all New Yorkers.

Without a state mandate to uphold RTC, the state-run courts continue to deny tenants the right to legal representation. This undermines RTC, disproportionately harms Black and brown communities, and threatens renters' rights. #RightToCounselNY #PassStatewideRTC #RTCLobbyDay.

(2/2) This law would expand RTC to tenants across NYS and ensure that the 10s of 1,000s of tenants being denied RTC in NYC actually get legal representation they’re entitled to.#EvictionMoratorium #StatewideRighttoCounsel #CleanHands

(2/2) Since the start of the pandemic, from January 2020 to today nearly 740,000 households have been sued for eviction. Don't let landlords scare you into leaving. You have rights, you are not alone. #RTCStatewide #BuildingTenantPower #PassCleanHands

(1/2) In NYS, landlords file hundreds of thousands of eviction cases every year–not because tenants have done something wrong, but because eviction is part of their profit strategy. Landlords push tenants out to raise rents–not a reflection of your worth or rights as a tenant.

(5/5) @GovKathyHochul, your ties to REBNY aren’t a secret. Your refusal to act only proves our point: New York tenants deserve better. #PassStatewideRTC now. #BuildingTenantPower #CleanHands.

(3/5) A&E tenants across NYC are done waiting. Building 503 west 122nd St is just the beginning. Tenant power is growing—and we’re coming for every slumlord on the REBNY board. #RTCNYC #FightBackOrganize #TenantPower

(2/5) A&E Real Estate = slumlord billionaires sitting on the REBNY board, profiting off displacement while tenants suffer. @GovKathyHochul, why are you still silent? ##PassStatewideRTC #CleanHands

(1/5) Two weeks ago, tenants from across NYC took action to demand power over their homes. A&E is a predatory landlord—and they’re not just failing 503 West 122nd st. They’re failing thousands. We’re not done. #TenantPower #RTCNY #AENotWelcome #HochulsCourtsMustChange

In NYC, 84% of tenants with attorneys stay in their homes. Right to Counsel WORKS. Let’s make it statewide. #PassRTC #HousingJustice.

Statewide Right to Counsel means: (1) Free attorney for all facing displacement. (2) Covers evictions, illegal lockouts, and repairs cases. (3) Courts must wait until the tenant has a lawyer. #PassRTC

No more evictions from slumlords who ignore repairs. Clean Hands gives tenants the leverage they need to fight back. #HousingJustice #CleanHands.
