We are encouraged to see that the funding for housing has gone from $0 to $50 million, but as the article says, it is still falling short of unmet need, and input from the community is vital! You can still offer comments until 6/22 at houstontx.gov/housing

Tenants in Texas faced perhaps the most harmful bill ever introduced at the Texas Legislature to take away their rights. We held the line and held them accountable. #xlege #eviction #tenantsrights #housingjustice

Due Process is in danger of going away for Texas renters. Eviction court is already a difficult place for tenants to navigate, but with the potential passage of SB 38/HB 32, a landlord can utilize a summary judgment and avoid tenants having a say in court altogether. #txlege #eviction #tenantrights

SB 38 will change the eviction process for all renters. Lt Gov Dan Patrick and lobbyists for landlords are misusing the language of “squatters” to strip rights away from every single renter in Texas.
The bill is passed in the Senate but still faces opposition in the Texas House. #eviction #txlege

We also see the effects of this across racial lines. Households of color are two to three times as likely to be extremely low-income renters as white households. And Black renters are more likely to be severely cost- burdened compared to white renters. #thegap25

More than 90% of extremely low-income renters are in the labor force, are seniors, have a disability, are in school, or are single adult caregivers. And yet, they struggle to afford basic necessities such as food, healthcare, transportation, or childcare. #thegap25
