DETAILS

Last week, two organizations, Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law and Housing Justice Center, filed an amicus brief arguing that an end to Minnesota’s eviction moratorium would disproportionately affect people of color and the disabled community and may cause spikes in COVID-19 among marginalized people who are already bearing the brunt of deaths during the pandemic.
