Tell your Councilmember to OPPOSE a Ban on Criminal Background Checks in Rental Housing |
|
NYSAR continues to oppose Int. 2047 which would prohibit landlords and real estate brokers in New York City from conducting criminal background checks on prospective tenants. NYSAR recognizes that all people need decent and safe housing, however, eliminating a key element of the screening process for applicants could place other residents in a dangerous situation. New York City residents can click here to respond to the NYSAR Call for Action urging the City Council to allow for a more balanced approach, considering the rights of other tenants and property owners. The bill has not been scheduled for a vote yet. Learn more.
NYSAR Continues Call for Action to End Cold Call Ban
As a result of being under a State of Emergency due to gun violence, licensees are again prohibited from making any cold calls. NYSAR sees no connection between acting to curb gun violence and the legitimate business practice of cold calling. NYSAR has launched a Call for Action asking the governor and state Legislature to lift the ban on cold calling now and decouple the statutory restrictions on cold calling as it relates to States of Emergency. Take Action now!
