Description

Michele Thomas, director of policy and advocacy for the statewide Low Income Housing Alliance in Washington, listens to a speaker during a rally advocating for lawmakers to adjust and pass House Bill 1217, a rent-control bill, at the Washington State Capitol Building Friday, April 18, 2025, in Olympia, Wash.

Every four months, Philippe Knab, the reentry and eviction defense program director for Washington’s Office of Civil Legal Aid, compiles a report on eviction trends across the state. Since 2021, each review has painted a worse picture than before — especially the most recent one.
