As the delta variant surges, repealing the eviction moratorium is unconscionable.

"The CDC moratorium has protected many from eviction. More than 7 million people are still behind on rent in the wake of the pandemic related shutdowns."

This afternoon children and adults from the Chirilagua community got together to express themselves artistically. An event coordinated by Mt. Vernon Community School PTA and TWU. Art IS a tool for mental health, especially in these difficult times.

@MorganProps been denying to meet directly with the tenants for the past three months and tenants demand changes now !

[Tenants and Workers @TenantsWorkers]

More than 40 tenants of Brookdale and Lynbrook Apartments gathered this evening to speak up in a press conference to demand @MorganProps to change the administration and to meet with the tenants to hear the conditions they are living in and the changes they want to see.

A 600-unit apartment complex & shopping center project is being considered in Chirilagua—a predominantly working-class Hispanic community. The community is worried the project will be the beginning of the displacement of their families.
