Your tax dollars hard at work buying votes for Democrats. 99% of evictions are because either A) a tenant has not paid their rent or B) they are a nuisance or dangerous to other tenants. Providing them free legal counsel will only result in increasing costs for landlords - thus driving up rents. Ultimately it will make it more difficult for borderline candidates to rent an apartment. Landlords will demand higher credit scores, a more stable job history and higher security deposits. Ironically this proposal will speed up gentrification as landlords become more selective to whom they rent. Some chose to sell, resulting in the bulldozing of older, more affordable housing stock. 

Landlords hate evictions - they are expensive. Lawyers don't work for free. An eviction ensures that any unpaid back rent is lost. Contrary to what Hancock and Co. seem to believe there is no advantage to evicting a tenant. 

Can rent control be far behind if Denver has reached this level of stupid?
