Across the country, the federal government and local and state governments are continuing to act and protect tenants from discrimination based on a past eviction record, as these records cause significant barriers for renters, especially renters who are low-income, people of color, or have experienced financial difficulties.

We are seeking to learn about the best strategies for passing, enacting, and implementing the strongest protections possible.
