Script:

I’m calling today in support of the Emergency Housing Protection Act bills because I’m very concerned about how the COVID-19 crisis in my community will be worsened if we don’t extend the eviction moratorium. There was excellent testimony given today about how we need a universal moratorium, not just for those who can prove financial hardship, in order to limit the spread of this deadly virus that has already killed thousands of Philadelphians. I urge you to vote yes on all the bills in the EHPA without amending them to be limited in scope.
