THREAD: Yesterday Gov. Gavin Newsom and state legislative leaders announced a proposal to extend eviction protections and to create a rent subsidy program using up to $2.6 billion in federal rental relief dollars. latimes.com/california/sto… @McGreevy99 #SB91 1/6
The bill #SB91 is a half-measure that is being rushed through the legislative process without significant input from tenants who would be most impacted.

Tenants deserve better. #ForgiveRentDebts #StopCovidEvictions 2/6
We're relieved the bill will extend important #AB3088 eviction protections through 6/30/21. Yet amid #Covid19 tenants need FULL rent debt relief. Rather than guaranteeing relief to all struggling tenants, #SB91 leaves the fate of vulnerable tenants in the hands of landlords. 3/6

Let's talk about the new protections for tenants across California #AB3088.

The law is complicated, but it must be made clear: TENANTS HAVE PROTECTIONS.

DO NOT EVICT YOURSELF.

If you can't pay rent, or your landlord is messing with you, here's what you need to know. (1/)
YOU CANNOT BE EVICTED FOR NOT PAYING RENT RIGHT NOW.

Landlords cannot try to evict tenants in California for not paying rent, as long as you've been impacted by COVID in any way, until February 1, 2021.

And certain cities, like LA, have stronger protections that remain.
Here's how it works.

Tenants are supposed to pay 25% of their rent for the period September 1 2020 to January 31 2021.

BUT that 25% is not due each month, but is due by February 1, 2021.

So not until Feb. 1 can your landlord try to evict you if you don't pay that 25%.
