- Dear to Whom it May Concern, I have recently been evicted from my home because of the rising rent costs I couldn't keep up with and am now living a NYCHA building. What was supposed to be my home turned into a filthy nightmare. So now I am turning to you guys for help to spread awareness because I know many others with this problem. Thank you, Marcus Rodriguez
- NEWS 12- NYC
- In this "new" building there is many rats and cracked walls, which can lead to lead poisoning.
- Marcus is on the phone with the housing authority to complain about his lead and rat problem. He is furious because of what has forced them into these unsanitary conditions.
- Marcus takes these complaints to his local news but doesn't hear anything back from them. The local news don't find this story interesting because it's nothing new to them.
- While visiting some friends back at his old place the Rodriguez family see a new family moving into their old home.
