I am a community organizer in Contra Costa County

[🐝 ACCE 🐝 @CalOrganize]

Yesterday Contra Costa ACCE members in Pittsburg & San Pablo organized & attended their City Councils to urge their representatives pass Rent Control! 💪🏽 Families CANNOT continue being forced to choose between rent or putting food on the table! #HousingIsAHumanRight 👩‍👧‍👦🏡

[Keep LA Housed @KeepLAHoused]

We’ve got a packed house today at LA City Hall ✊🏽🔥 50+ Tenants & Workers are out here waiting to make their demands heard! @LACityCouncil the rent is too damn high and we need livable wages now! #KeepLAHoused Use toolkit for public comment: https://t.co/KjqhSELNqM

#Antioch approves new tenant protections against landlord harassment and retaliation. https://t.co/B7cY2cu0E6

[PICO California @PICOcalifornia]

When we organize, we win! Witness the moment #SB567, The #HomelessnessPreventionAct, passed Senate Appropriations. The CAA's hope was to see this bill held and buried.

But it is not over yet! We must protect SB567 from further amendments that will erode its impact. #CALeg

Yesterday, tenants at Twin Creek Apartments, demanded FPI Management stop the the tenant harassment, rent hikes & make the repairs we need! It's corporate property managers like FPI that show us exactly why we need rent control, just cause & tenant protections in Antioch! 🏡✊

[🐝 ACCE 🐝 @CalOrganize]

📢OUT NOW!📢 On Jan 25 the @caanet argued to the Antioch City Council that renters do not need tenant protections - but the ACCE Legal Team saw through their lies! Check out our new Medium piece where we break down the CAA's arguments & why they're wrong.

2/ One of the tenants, ACCE member Dahbia, cancelled a trip to see her family in Algeria after years of living in the U.S. when she received the eviction notice. Two weeks ago her father passed from COVID-19.

Please click on the link above & RT to show Dahbia some support!

🚨1/ Tenants in Contra Costa STILL need your help!🚨

They are being evicted by predatory landlord Steven Pinza who has a history of harassing & displacing tenants.

Click here to urge the Contra Costa BOS hold Pinza accountable & stand with the tenants! https://t.co/BJWKV7ueDZ

Real estate developer money should not influence policy. Protect our communities and make it clear that California is not for sale: Vote YES on 15 & 21. Corporate real estate does not own CA. #CANotForSale

[David Sharples @DavidSharples6]

Developers like Geoffrey Palmer & real estate corps like Blackstone are spending millions to continue to profit at our expense. This is not okay! Vote YES on 15 & 21 to protect CA & invest in our communities #CAIsNotForSale

[David Sharples @DavidSharples6]

Wealthy corporations like Blackstone & Vornado are spending millions on a campaign so they can turn a profit at Californians' expense. But we're fighting back. Vote YES on 15 & 21 so our communities can thrive. #CANotForSale

Urge Contra Costa Board of Supervisors: Pass a Moratorium on Evictions, Rent Increases & Foreclosures Now! https://t.co/zormzR1epx

[🐝 ACCE 🐝 @CalOrganize]

Instead of responding to the needs of millions of Californians, on Monday, March 16th, @GavinNewsom released an "order" that did nothing more than allow cities to volunteer protections. This is a shameful abdication of responsibility.

After refusing to pay rent for 4 months, these tenants might get what they want: a chance to buy their building through a local land trust. @CalOrganize @moms4housing @oakclt @EastBayTimes @mercnews https://t.co/MX3k3HOsTS

[🐝 ACCE 🐝 @CalOrganize]

Two days before Thanksgiving, nearly 100 elderly and disabled residents living at @BrookdaleLiving San Pablo​ received notice they had 60 days to leave. This is outrageous.
