The $600 stimulus check is not enough and Biden's proposed $1,400 just adds insult to injury. One-time stimulus checks of any amount are not sufficient, we need consistent replacement income for those who cannot work. One-third of people are struggling to pay their bills and are unable to catch up with rent. The eviction moratoriums nationally and locally have paused millions of evictions but rent debt is still piling up. The looming eviction crisis will hit oppressed communities, already especially affected by the pandemic, the hardest. Big landlords are abusing loopholes and filing eviction lawsuits against families regardless of the moratoriums.
Despite all their claims to the contrary the government can immediately cancel rents and mortgages, house the homeless and stop evictions. Yet they choose to bail out the corporations and the banks. The money is there to give the people what they need to survive this pandemic. The money is there to help people keep their homes without accumulating debt. We must and can build the movement to defend our communities and stop all evictions and foreclosures. Click here to sign our petition.
