Current protections are <br />insufficient to protect vulnerable low-income tenants from evictions after emergency orders are lifted. <br />That is why we demand a moratorium on rent increases (rent freeze) during the COVID- 1 9-related emergency <br />declarations, and for at least 6 months thereafter. It will be an immense challenge to attempt to recover after 3 <br />months or more without income and the worst health crisis of our time. <br />Please consider this plea for our community who needs your help now. <br />Respectfully, <br />Diana Y. Aguilar, M.Ed. <br />University of Southern California <br />Educational Counseling <br />
