Worcester residents, pols join to support foreclosure legislation

Worcester residents and politicians held a press conference today at City Hall to express support for 3 items of legislation being considered at the state level to deal with the foreclosure crisis.

Essentially Worcester's entire state delegation supports the three bills: Senate Bill 2664, "An Act Requiring Just Cause for Eviction in Foreclosed Properties"; Senate Bill 2663, "An Act Relative To A Temporary Moratorium On Foreclosures"; and Senate Bill 2662, "An Act To Require Judicial Foreclosures."
