The Right to Remain
Summary:
The Pratt Center for Community Development and the Community Service Society of New York (CSS) support good cause eviction protection (S3082/A5573), which would expand the fundamental right to a lease renewal to the vast majority of tenants in the state. A statewide Good Cause law can work with existing tenant laws and housing subsidy programs to create the conditions for more tenants to organize in their buildings (including buildings with mixed rent-regulated and unregulated apartments). With a potential mass eviction crisis on the horizon, New York State should follow suit with full coverage Good Cause eviction protections.
To work as effectively as possible, Good Cause must have broad coverage.
