So, are they considered tenants? Looks like they might be ‘rooming house residents’.

Good luck getting them out. Is this going to be great!!!!!!!!

https://www.masslegalhelp.org/housing/lt1-chapter-15-rooming-houses.pdf

1. Rights of All Rooming
House Residents
No matter how long you have lived in a rooming
house, you have the following rights:

 The right to report bad housing conditions
(see Chapter 8: Getting Repairs Made).

 The right to a hearing in front of a judge
before the owner can evict you. You do
not have to move out until a judge says
you do, and only a constable can physically
remove you.

 The right to ask a judge to hold off on
evicting you until you find another place to
live (see Chapter 12: Evictions). Although
a judge is not required to give you extra
time, it is within their discretion. It will be
harder to get more time if your eviction is
for non-payment of rent or a reason that is
your fault, or if you have lived in the
rooming house for less than 3 months.
However, if you need more time, ask for it.

a. You Cannot Be Locked Out
If you legally occupy your room—which means
you moved in with the permission of the
owner—the owner cannot lock you out of your
room or the rooming house. If the owner asks
you to leave or gives you an eviction notice (notice
to quit), you do not have to move out. After an
owner gives you a notice to quit, she must file a
court case and get a judge’s permission to evict
you.

If the owner locks you out or attempts to lock
you out of your room or the rooming house, the
owner has violated the law. If you have to go to
court to get back in, a judge can order the owner
to allow you back in and can order the owner to
pay you money (damages) equal to 3 months rent
or more.

And if you think all kinds of liberal legal help isn’t already lined up to make sure they will NEVER be made to leave, you are sadly mistaken.

Beautiful—omg these lefties really know how to paint themselves into corners.

I am sure some big wheel Boston law firm is begging to add a case like this to their pro bono portfolio.

Most people have no idea what’s happening until it’s too late.

>>do house work without paying them

Indentured Servitude

Is a federal crime.

There is to be required signage posted at every place of employment in the US stating this law.

I can’t wait for the story when a nice US family takes in a migrant family... and the migrants rob & kill the super nice US family. b Then they leave for San Fran.

Apparently, a lot of Haitians migrated to South America and lived there for a while, before figuring they could get a better deal in the US.
