The wildfires in the eastern half of the state have destroyed hundreds of homes and displaced thousands of Washingtonians. Renters are particularly vulnerable during this crisis. The Washington State Attorney General’s office is enforcing the Governor’s eviction moratorium related to the wildfires in Spokane and throughout central and eastern Washington.

“In this time of crisis, we must prioritize protecting people from further displacement and uncertainty. Our office is ready to support renters who are covered by the eviction protections in the latest emergency proclamation.” – AG Brown
