MD Renters’ Rights Hearing: Support SB100

Maryland State
Miller Senate Office Building 11 Bladen St, Annapolis, MD

Jewish sacred texts recognize that having safe, stable housing is key to a healthy society, and we know that it is key to reducing racial inequities. Join us at the Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee hearing for SB100, which will hold unlicensed landlords accountable.

Join us at the Senate Judicial Proceedings committee hearing for SB51, which would reduce unnecessary, harmful interactions with the police.

Maryland State
