In a push for further tenant protection, many municipalities across Hudson Valley have passed, or are aiming to pass, so-called “good cause” eviction legislation before Saturday. “Good cause” eviction bills would give tenants the right to a lease renewal, protect against large rent increases when renewing a lease, and prevent landlords from removing a tenant without an order from a judge.

So, under this bill a landlord can't evict you as long as you pay your rent and are a good tenant.
A lot of landlords evict a whole building because it's easier to sell an empty building than a building full of tenants. This bill would stop that.
There are people who pay their rent and take care of their apartments but who are evicted anyway.
Also, rent increases are tied to inflation.
