Just came across this article. Workers that have lost their employment because of the corona virus are  waging a war to not pay the rent. Not just a delay but a full on don't have to pay the rent for 90 days.

This should concern everyone of us on here. It's a direct threat to keeping our properties. I keep hearing about help with our mortgages but that is only government backed loans and I'm sure the majority of us are not on government backed loans. I can support giving my tenants a break for a couple of months and letting them payoff the missed rent over time. I know this isn't their fault but we should have some kind of protection if the states are going to back this rent strike.
