While 2024 was hailed as the “Year of Housing” because of the Maryland General Assembly’s focus on safe, fair, affordable housing, the reality of the 2025 legislative session was far more challenging. Housing advocates fought uphill battles to keep Marylanders in their homes as state officials shifted focus to emergencies created by the change of federal administration and the state budget shortfall. The Public Justice Center continues to work in strong coalition with other housing advocates to turn adversity into progress. Join us as we break down key victories in Annapolis and share how our coalition efforts are driving change in Baltimore City to increase renter power and hold the City and landlords accountable for maintaining safe and habitable rental properties.
