Thanks to all of your strong advocacy we prevented HB 243 from passing at 11th hour and ensured no one will lose their home over a water bill in Baltimore!

The Md General Assembly should make life better, not worse, for us and our communities. HB243 is a step in the wrong direction, because no one should lose their home over unpaid water bills. Take action here: https://t.co/Yi3jVrJ3Bk

@shellyhettleman @SarahForMD @GuyGuzzone @MichaelFor27 @JBJenningsUSA @Senatornjk @corymccray @SenJohnnyRay @SenatorZucker Remove the "owner-occupied" hurdle in HB 243! Don't gut the Water Taxpayer Protection Act of 2019 and protect all residential property from tax sale over water bills!

[Baltimore Right to Water Coalition @BmoreRightToH20]

Thank you, @shellyhettleman and @SarahForMD, for speaking up in committee to protect renters during tax sale! HB 243 needs to be fixed. No one should lose their home over water bills.
