As eviction filings climb to pre-COVID levels, the decision not to advance #RightToCounsel bills is deeply disappointing. Read our full statement here: massrtc.org/uploads/2/7/0/… #mapoli
Eviction filings are going up again - we can stop this. Ensure justice in evictions for low-income tenants and owner-occupants by bringing a #RightToCounsel in Massachusetts. We can start to help thousands of people. Pass S.874 & H.1436. #mapoli
Every day, we at Rosie’s Place witness the upheaval & trauma that evictions have on women who are disproportionately impacted by evictions and the housing crisis. We call upon legislators to stop this trauma and pass #RightToCounsel to keep people safe & stably housed. #mapoli
Nearly 13% of homeless adults are veterans - thanks @VOAMASS for lifting up how crucial access to legal representation is for veterans facing eviction. #RightToCounsel is critical to keeping veterans in our community stably housed #mapoli Read op-ed here: commonwealthmagazine.org/opinion/right-…
Facing eviction is terrifying, esp if you're unrepresented. Together access to counsel & rental asst increase housing stability for vulnerable tenants. It shouldn't be either or. 230 orgs urge legislators to pass a #RightToCounsel in MA. Join us massrtc.org/supporters.html #mapoli
Over 90% of tenants fight evictions alone & 80% of landlords have lawyers. People’s housing is at stake. Write for justice in evictions. Email your legislators today #RightToCounsel #mapoli bit.ly/rtc-cosponsor
Evictions disproportionately impact women, esp women of color & mothers. This Women’s History Month, ensure that women across MA are able to stay in their homes & access legal help. Contact your legislators and ask them to pass a #RightToCounsel. bit.ly/rtc-cosponsor #mapoli
#RightToCounsel programs are happening across the country. Evictions cause depression & job loss, send people into shelters & uproot neighborhoods. It’s time to bring Right to Counsel to MA. Write your legislators today to take action on RTC bills! bit.ly/rtc-cosponsor #mapoli
We’re fighting to ensure justice in evictions. The time for a #RightToCounsel Program is NOW - email your legislators today and urge them to report RTC out of committee before the May 9 deadline. Take action here: bit.ly/rtc-cosponsor #mapoli
“Having children is the single greatest predictor of whether someone will face an eviction.” Domestic violence survivors can face eviction due to that violence. Legal aid makes a difference. Help bring a #RightToCounsel program to MA. #mapoli
Black renters in MA are 2.4 times more likely to have an eviction filed against them than white renters. #LegalAid will help address this inequity. #RightToCounsel will bring equity and fairness to the eviction process. Take Action Here 👉🏿 bit.ly/3ABjDoU #mapoli
Thanks to @RepDaveRogers, State Rep Michael Day and State Senator @SalDiDomenico for sponsoring Right to Counsel in Evictions, an act that will prevent evictions and promote housing stability by providing legal representation in eviction proceedings.
A recent report estimates that the # of older adults experiencing homelessness in Boston will triple before 2030. #LegalAid can keep them stably housed. Join with JALSA as we work to bring a #RightToCounsel program to MA. Take Action Here 👉🏿 bit.ly/3ABjDoU #mapoli
Thank you to @mass_rtc for your advocacy! I am proud to support my colleague @SalDiDomenico’s legislation, #RightToCounsel has long been necessary in Commonwealth, and it is even more necessary now.

Housing instability has been a critical issue throughout MA before the pandemic & it will be long after as well. My #RightToCounsel Bill will make a difference for tenants & keep people in their homes. TY @mass_rtc for leading the way. Now is the time to bring RTC to MA. #mapoli

25% of kids in families living below the federal poverty line are evicted by the time they’re 15. Evictions trap children in poverty – legal help can stop this trauma. Help bring a #RightToCounsel program to MA @SenJohnFKeenan @RepArciero #mapoli
60,000 veterans like Ed in MA live in overcrowded/unsafe conditions or spend too much on rent putting them at risk of eviction. #LegalAid keeps vulnerable veterans housed. Help bring a #RightToCounsel program to MA. vimeo.com/617965475 @SenJohnFKeenan @RepArciero #mapoli
