Thank you so much for joining this evening for our forum “DC Attacks, MA Fights Back: The White House vs. Housing for All”! And thank you again to our amazing speakers!
If you missed it or wanted to rewatch any of it, the video is available here: https://youtu.be/zGz5C9IUUyY.
Our speakers referenced a few bills at the MA State House:
Real Estate Transfer Fee (H.3056 / S.1937): An Act granting a local option for a real estate transfer fee to fund affordable housing
Rent Stabilization (H.2328 / S.1447): An Act enabling cities and towns to stabilize rents and protect tenants
Tenant Opportunity to Purchase (H.1544 / S.998): An Act to guarantee a tenant’s first right of refusal
Find out if your legislators are already co-sponsoring these bills by looking at our Scorecard website. If they already are, thank them, and if not, urge them to do so. You can find sample email text (as well as more info) for each bill in the links above.
We also spoke about housing issues in the FY 2026 budget being negotiated right now. Write to your state legislators in support of key budget priorities here.
