Put Just Cause bill (H7449) to a vote!

The Issue

Just Cause, House bill 7449, would prevent Rhode Islanders from being put out in the street. We need to stop banks from evicting tenants from foreclosed buildings unnecessarily, causing blight and homelessness in our neighborhoods. Chairman Cale Keable, Representative John G. Edwards, and House Speaker Nicholas Mattielo have the power to do the right thing and pass this law to protect Rhode Islanders and the state's economy. By signing this petition, you're supporting Rhode Island residents and encouraging the state's policy makers to do the right thing.
