Massachusetts S1022 aims to maintain stable housing for families with pets by prohibiting evictions based on pet ownership and limiting pet-related.

Massachusetts S1022 seeks to ensure stable housing for families with pets by prohibiting landlords from initiating evictions based solely on the presence of a pet for one year after a state of emergency, unless the pet poses a safety threat. The bill also limits the amount of additional rent that can be charged for common household pets, with a cap of 1 percent of the first full month’s rent per pet.
