Notice of Covid-19 Protections

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Oregon lawmakers amended ORS 90 in ways that affect screening potential tenants.

SB 282 prohibits landlords from considering any court eviction actions that occurred between April 2, 2020 and March 1, 2022 when screening an applicant, regardless of the outcome of the case and regardless of the reason for the eviction.

SB 282 also prohibits landlords from considering an applicant’s unpaid rent, including rent reflected in court judgements, or referrals of debt to a collection agency, that accrued on or after April 1, 2020 and before March 1, 2022.
