Kids shouldn’t be hungry. Free lunch is good. Free breakfast is good.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

Over 370 tenant organizers from multiple tenant unions across the United States have launched a nation-wide tenant union federation (@TenantFed).

This "union of unions" aims to build tenant power, win protections, and make housing a public good.

Biden didn't have to restart student loan payments, but he did

Now Project 2025 wants to triple student loan payments on average, and create payment plans that are designed to trap people in debt for the rest of their lives. Interest will mean many more in debt every month

My latest interview:

I think a lot of tenants don’t realize they’ve played a role in their neighbor’s eviction.

It might seem like common sense that if you see packages store up outside your neighbor’s door to tell the landlord—but that may result in a nuisance case.
