@tracyrosenthal_ We still have copies and all proceeds go towards bailing people out of jail https://t.co/CDPJwydtds

This is as good a time as any to remind us all that this is what landlording is. Pure wealth extraction and transfer to people lucky enough to have money from people who work for a living.

So everyone didn’t get the memo huh?

They’re purposely making blue states unaffordable so that deep blue voters are priced out + move to blue dot cities in red states where their vote is diluted. The housing crisis is a manufactured political strategy to reshape the electorate.

We’re going to need local infrastructures of community defense. Join Leonardo Vilchis of LA Tenants Union, Tara Raghuveer of KC Tenants & Tenants Federation, Esteban Girón of Crown Heights Tenants Union and me :) to talk about how tenant organizing fits into what’s next.

🚨 @housingrightsUS has filed discrimination complaints against 200+ CA landlords, alleging they illegally refused to rent to #Section8 voucher holders.

This is an infuriating look into widespread violations of tenants’ rights. For more:

@sberg0 @tclift No. People have been in city motel shelters for more than one year and some two years.

[Sacramento Tenants Union @SacTenantsUnion]

@Nikki_Paschal @tclift Yes it’s true. They promised them permanent housing in the written lease agreement between the city and safe ground sacramento.

I spent the last month combing through local news for @theappeal to find the cities passing anti-homelessness camping bans since the Supreme Court’s landmark Grants Pass ruling.

What I found is a post-Grants Pass landscape where a new ban is being passed at least every other day

[Tenant Union Federation @TenantFed]

POLL: 73% of battleground voters support rent caps.

The rent is too damn high. The solution to rent gouging? Rent caps. This is the only solution that meets the scale and severity of the crisis tenants endure every month.

Solidarity. Permanent housing now #stopthesweeps

BREAKING: The U.S. Court of Appeals just ruled that D.C. Police keeping personal property like phones and cameras for too long for no reason violates the Fourth Amendment. Here’s why this is a major win for protestors’ rights nationwide:

NOW INTRODUCING THE TENANT UNION FEDERATION

The Tenant Union Federation is a union of unions, organizing tenants as a political and economic class that cannot be ignored.

[Tara Raghuveer @taraghuveer]

Homelessness in America—a country with 16 million vacant homes—is an indictment of an economic regime that prioritizes profits over people.

[tracy rosenthal @tracyrosenthal_]

I met many homeless people in Grants Pass—with jobs that didn’t add up to rent, with disabilities or such trauma they couldn’t work. I know the faces of the people the Supreme Court just said should be in jail for sleeping outside. Now every city can do the same.
