Description:
This report provides a descriptive analysis of tenant protections and ERA-related policies that state and local
governments enacted or implemented in 2021. The tenant protections included in this report are grouped
into five categories: (1) state and local eviction moratoriums; (2) pauses on the eviction process to allow for
ERA processing; (3) mandates that require landlords to apply for or share information on ERA before filing an
eviction and that limit tenant fees; (4) increases to tenant representation during the eviction process; and (5)
protections that reduce discrimination and promote housing stability.
