![🛑 TAKE 2 MINUTES TO FIGHT FOR TENANT RIGHTS 📨
The landlord industry has organized a fierce opposition to changes proposed by the Michigan Supreme Court that would give tenants facing more information, more time, and more leverage to hold their landlords accountable if they violate health and safety codes (which 92% of landlords in Detroit do)

Suggested Script:
I support the changes to MCR 4.201, the eviction case court rule, that the Supreme Court has proposed. I encourage you to adopt these changes. These changes do not go nearly far enough, but they give tenants more time and information during an unprecedented housing crisis. I support the use of remote technology and pre-trails in eviction proceedings. I support MCR 4.201 (B)(3)(c) because landlords should be required to follow the law if they want to leverage the court to evict tenants. Disregard the landlord industry's harmful comments, adopt the proposed changes, and do everything in your power to protect the rights and lives of tenants.
