WBPA Filed Federal Complaint vs. Gov Inslee
As many of you know, the Washington Landlord Association (WLA) dba Washington Apartment Association (WAA) has partnered with the Washington Business Property Association (WBPA) (www.theWBPA.org) in a lawsuit against the Governor related to the moratorium on evictions and more broadly, the governor’s proclamation 20.19 et sec. We have had numerous members step up in requests to be part of the suit and WLA has raised and contributed $20,000.00 in that effort. Importantly, that suit has now been filed in the Eastern District of our Federal Courts.
The WBPA has a blog post including additional materials about the filed complaint: https://www.thewbpa.org/
For those interested, provided below is a PDF link to the filed complaint. I want to thank all those that contributed and encourage those that can to continue to support the effort to get fair and lawful treatment in this devastating time. That includes the membership of each and every one of you. Those wishing to contribute can do so through our website payment portal and simply note it as a legal defense fund contribution.
