But many tenants who receive eviction filings don't end up actually getting evicted. Once a lawsuit gets filed it is visible forever, and many landlords won’t rent to you. Sealing eviction records would help tenants across Pennsylvania move on after difficult periods and allow them to apply for housing without worrying that an eviction will follow them around for life. You can help by signing our petition calling on the PA General Assembly to pass legislation that would seal eviction records in cases that don’t result in a court judgment, and provide a path to sealing them for tenants that pay their judgments off and for those that have old evictions. https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/seal-eviction-records-in-pa
