<p>Squad member Rep. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/rashida-tlaib">Rashida Tlaib</a> (D-MI) made up to $100,000 in rental income during the pandemic while simultaneously co-sponsoring a bill to implement a nationwide cancellation of rents and home mortgage payments.</p>
<p>Fox New Digital <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/rashida-tlaib-pocketed-100000-rental-income-pandemic-despite-pushing-cancel-rent">reported</a> that Tlaib&#8217;s 2021 annual financial disclosures revealed a property in Detroit accumulated between $15,001 and $50,000 in rental income — the same amount from the same property in 2020.</p>
<p>The Detroit News <a href="https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/politics/2021/08/20/tlaib-defends-detroit-rental-income-amid-conservative-attacks/8201891002/">reported</a> last year that Tlaib&#8217;s residential property was valued at $100,000 to $250,000.</p>
<p>Michigan Rising Action argued last year that Tlaib&#8217;s receipt of rental income is an &#8220;insult to every landlord who is unable to collect rent from tenants to make ends meet,&#8221; Eric Ventimiglia said, according to The Detroit News.</p>
<p>However, a spokesperson for the representative defended her right to earn rental income on the Detroit property.</p>
<p>&#8220;There is no contradiction between advocating for an eviction moratorium and rental relief and having a great relationship with a long-term tenant in a single rental home,&#8221; Tlaib spokeswoman Adrienne Salazar said, according to The Detroit News.</p>
<p>&#8220;Rep. Tlaib is an unwavering advocate for tenants, has worked to get rental assistance out to landlords to keep people housed, and remains focused on advocating for residents during this pandemic,&#8221; she added.</p>
<p>Tlaib joined her fellow representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), and other members of the House in the early days of the pandemic to co-sponsor the <a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/1847">Rent and Mortgage Cancellation Act</a>, a bill to institute a nationwide cancellation of rents and home mortgage payments through the duration of the coronavirus pandemic.</p>
<p>However, the bill never made it past the Senate floor, which at the time was under the control of a Republican majority.</p>
<p>Tlaib and the others reintroduced the bill in March 2021 to cancel rent for an entire year.</p>
<p>Fox News reported last year that one of the bill&#8217;s co-sponsors, Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), also racked up somewhere between $5,000 to $15,000 in rental income from a property in Boston during 2020.</p>
<p>Pressley said when the bill was first introduced that housing is a critical determinant of public health and that no person or family should be forced to choose between putting food on the table and keeping a roof over their head during the global crisis.</p>
