What the petition asks
Make landlords suspend rent if tenant is unable to work due to coronavirus
Hard times are ahead of us. This virus and its consequences affect all of us and soon many of us won't be able to work and make a living.
Rent is one of the biggest expenses for most families and not everyone has enough savings to survive this period. I kindly ask the government to order landlords and home owners to pause the rent for the next couple of months.
