# Svante, how will you stop evictions? 

Today we're calling, emailing, and tweeting @ Ithaca Mayor Svante Myrick to see what he'll do to stop evictions locally when the NYS Moratorium on evictions expires. 

## Tweet 

"Hey @SvanteMyrick, if the NYS eviction moratorium expires on May 1, how will you stop evictions in Ithaca? You need to protect Ithacans and stop government-sanctioned houselessness."
