</span><br /><font size="1"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">In the last legislative session, the Housing Committee at the State House decided to support a different law called the Right to Purchase bill, instead of the Statewide Enabling Act or the Home Rule Petitions. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
However, while MAHT is not opposed to this bill, filed by Senator Susan Tucker, co-chair of the Housing Committee, we feel it would not apply to most of our member tenant groups, since it only applies to properties up for sale. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Instead MAHT has been working for a stronger National Right to Purchase bill, which we expect to be introduced on Capitol Hill this year. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Massachusetts residents in privately-owned HUD-subsidized housing need the protections in the </span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
