EMERGENCY ALERT!
We did it once before, and we need you to do it again!
The public hearing on HB 2004-A has been scheduled to begin this Wednesday (5/3/2017) at the Oregon State Capital in Hearing room D at 1:00pm.
We NEED to fill the seats in the hearing room! The tenant groups will literally have bus loads attending, just like last time - We have to be represented and only you can help.
HB 2004-A would allow rent control, prohibit most End of Tenancy "no cause" notices, force fixed-term tenancies to extend to month-to-month and require landlords to pay relocation assistance to tenants, before they even move out!
This bill declares an emergency making it effective on passage, which could be as early as next month.
WE MUST STOP THIS! WE NEED YOU IN SALEM!
For those of you that cannot attend in person, and even those of you who will be there, it is imperative that you email your written testimony against HB 2004-A by 1:00pm Wednesday. Here is the link. shs.exhibits@oregonlegislature.gov
Please explain in your own words how the passage of this bill will affect you and/or your business.
For those of you attending, please arrive by 12:30pm and sign up to speak at the table outside of the hearing room.
Thank you all in advance!
Jim Straub
ORHA Legislative Director
