The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6348, aims to amend section 47a-23c of the general statutes to extend the prohibition on eviction without just cause to all tenants. Currently, certain tenants are protected from eviction unless there is a good reason, and this bill seeks to broaden that protection to encompass all tenants, ensuring that no tenant can be evicted without just cause.
The primary legal change involves the insertion of language that explicitly expands the existing just cause eviction protections, thereby deleting any limitations that currently apply to specific groups of tenants. This legislative effort is intended to enhance tenant rights and provide greater security in housing stability across the state.
