Harrisburg, Pa. (WENY)– A group of lawmakers in Harrisburg is introducing a package of bills aimed at addressing the housing crisis in Pennsylvania. Specifically, it will seek to combat problems brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Several House Democrats have unveiled the Safe At Home package, a series of bills that will look to help renters, homeowners in debt, and small landlords survive the pandemic.

“To be rendered homeless in the middle of a global health pandemic would be catastrophic for our families and for our state,” says Rep. Elizabeth Fiedler (D- Philadelphia), who is sponsoring a couple of these bills.
