Just Cause Campaign (CT 2026)
Reducing evictions, protecting tenant rights, stabilizing our communities

Tell Your Legislators to Support Just Cause!
Tell Your Legislators to Support Just Cause!
Tell your state representative and senator to pass the Just Cause bill, H.B. 6889, to protect tenants from unjust evictions! Landlords should not have the power to displace our lives, but right now, CT allows them to use “no-fault” evictions to kick tenants out of their homes. Many of these evictions are driven by discrimination or retaliation against tenants that draw attention to condition problems in their homes. Evictions devastate and destabilize our communities, and their negative impacts fall hardest on working-class, Black, and immigrant tenants. Just Cause Eviction Protection is a tool CT must implement to stop the destructive impact of no-fault evictions.
¡Dile a tus legisladores que apoyen Causa Justa!
¡Dile a tus legisladores que apoyen Causa Justa!
¡Dile a tu representante estatal y senador estatal que aprueben el proyecto de ley de Causa Justa, H.B. 6889, para proteger a los inquilinos de desalojos injustos! Los propietarios no deberían tener el poder de desestabilizar nuestras vidas, pero en este momento, Connecticut les permite utilizar desalojos “sin causa” para expulsar a los inquilinos de sus hogares. Muchos de estos desalojos son motivados por inversionistas especuladores que buscan aumentar drásticamente los alquileres, por discriminación, o por represalias contra inquilinos que denuncian condiciones inseguras en sus viviendas. Los desalojos devastan y desestabilizan nuestras comunidades, y sus impactos negativos afectan más a los inquilinos de clase trabajadora, negros e inmigrantes. La Protección de Desalojos por una Causa Justa es una herramienta que Connecticut debe implementar para frenar el impacto destructivo de los desalojos sin causa.
