	"description": "We are tenants, working people, students, families, couples and individuals, old and young, black, brown, indigenous, and white, abled and disabled, documented and undocumented,  living across Connecticut, and calling upon our elected representatives to propose and pass Right to Counsel legislation guaranteeing the right to no-cost legal counsel to all tenants facing eviction proceedings in the 2021 legislative session. Right to counsel legislation represents a meaningful step towards combating mass evictions and housing instability. Data shows that outcomes for low-income tenants in eviction cases improves dramatically with representation. Across the country, cities from New York to Boulder have already implemented right to counsel legislation. These cities have seen real results: up to a 77% reduction in evictions, with more tenants winning the fight to stay in their homes. Evictions are now, more than ever, a matter of life and death. We are calling on you to combat mass evictions and pass Right to Counsel legislation to: - Establish access to an attorney as a right in eviction cases - Guarantee legal representation by not-for-profit legal service providers with expertise in housing law - Universally cover all residential tenants in all types of rental housing - Cover all evictions and all eviction-related cases, including administrative hearings - Fund for attorney training and support - Fund for tenant organizing, advocacy, and leadership development - Establish affirmative litigation to enforce tenant rights",
