In this episode, we sit down with Massachusetts State Senator Lydia Edwards – one of the original champions of the eviction record sealing law – to reflect on the law's first year of impact and look ahead at what comes next. Senator Edwards shares her unique perspective as a legislator, former legal aid attorney, and a small property owner, discusses potential improvements to make sealing faster and more automatic for tenants who win or have their cases dismissed, and reflects on the power of community and tenant organizations in making the law real for people.
