The new year is coming and with it a lot of potential pain for renters, landlords business owners and so many others.

THANKS TO OUR SPONSOR:

On this week’s “OPB Politics Now,” we look at the measures lawmakers are hoping to pass in an upcoming special session and how they might help.

We also discuss an uptick in tenant harassment as a side effect of the eviction ban, as landlords are unable to evict tenants formally through the courts when they stop paying rent.
