April 8, 2021. East Boston, MA. Marchers gathered in front of 168 Gove St. in East Boston, Massachusetts, an apartment building where Latinx immigrant families who rent their homes are currently fighting no-fault eviction. The rally and march called for state-level legislation to prevent more evictions in the pandemic, urging Massachusetts legislators to pass the COVID-19 Housing Equity Bill, HD. 3030 / SD. 1802. According to organizers despite a patchwork of emergency eviction prevention efforts at the state and federal levels, judges have green-lighted over 1, 800 evictions in Massachusetts since Gov. Baker ended the state-wide eviction moratorium. Additionally Massachusetts landlords have brought over 11, 000 new eviction cases for non-payment and no-fault since the moratorium was allowed to expire, putting thousands at risk of homelessness as the pandemic surges again. © 2021 Marilyn Humphries
