Meanwhile, 1,000,000 people access food banks. Until the 1980s there were no food banks. Let that sink in. I was on "welfare" as a teen and could rent a room, feed myself and go to school .
RAISE THE RATES and #RealRentControl immediately
Bring back #RealRentControl NOW.
Yesterday, I presented a petition to the legislature signed by HUNDREDS of community members in #tostpauls calling for its return.
@fordnation enough is enough—our communities DESERVE stable, affordable rents! Listen to their demands.
Affordable housing is a HUMAN RIGHT, not a RUTHLESS RACKET to be exploited by Ford-enabled landlords! It’s high time we bring back REAL rent control! #TOStPauls #ONPoli #HousingJusticeNow #RealRentControl
Truly affordable housing and strong tenant protections

real solutions to keep tenants housed!
"Rising rents, displacement & formal evictions all contribute to the nation's homelessness epidemic, housing advocates say." https://t.co/GkoO6ddKae
#AffordableFirst #RealRentControl
.@PippengerHarlo nails it!
Another clear illustration: SF has 61K vacant units, the highest vacancy rate of any US metro area, & landlords aren't dropping rents, while Mayor & Planning work to streamline more unaffordable units.
Truly affordable housing & #RealRentControl NOW!
you could not pick a clearer illustration of why the “legality” of housing construction is not the issue
When @bcndp brought in #vacancycontrol in 1974, inflation was surging near 10%, and the vacancy rate was less than 1%. Same as today.
#RealRentControl is a policy that can quickly protect a growing renter population from price gouging.

Despite the rental market's key role in driving inflation, Biden's Inflation Reduction Act "does nothing to address skyrocketing rents & dwindling housing supply.” It's time for @POTUS to enact #RealRentControl nationwide! #RentControlNow #HomesForAll

Exciting news for Bell Gardens, Pomona, and CA #TenantPower! Here's to getting one step closer to #RealRentControl in California. https://t.co/3yBsLp5QZT
Inflation affects everyone, but without #RealRentControl, it will always hit our most vulnerable populations first, hardest, and closest to home. #DecommodifyHousing #HomesForAll
This is why #RealRentControl MUST include vacancy control. SF's eviction crisis is proof that the housing market's systemic abuse cannot be stopped through half-measures.

wrote about this with @deanpreston four years ago but glad to see it reaffirmed here! now to take the over / under on how many people will conveniently forget to read the highlighted part
"Renters should not be seen as profit centers for the investor class."
With rent prices skyrocketing, every city needs rent control. In CA, we must #RepealCostaHawkins & implement #RealRentControl/vacancy control to protect tenants from greedy speculators.

Relieving news for Oakland tenants: landlords can't raise rents above 3%! Grateful for representatives like @carroll_fife who fight for renters and unhoused residents!
Now lets organize to #RepealCostaHawkins and win vacancy control/#RealRentControl! https://t.co/rZAEwibYah
"corporate landlords extract as much profit from investments as possible. The results are rent increases, cost-cutting on maintenance, reductions in services, low-cost or inadequate repairs, & evictions."
From NY to CA, we need #RealRentControl for ALL! https://t.co/LYoAAaKJff
We need to #RepealCostaHawkins, which prevents #RealRentControl/vacancy control & rent stabilization on new buildings!
Until then, it's important to find ways to stop rent hikes, including @AaronPeskin's new effort to rent stabilize new construction in SF!https://t.co/lXuGDHvcyU

Implement #VacancyControl / #RealRentControl (unit is rent controlled regardless of tenants changing) to disincentivize evictions! Rents rise because legislators beholden to real estate $$$ allow them to rise. Eviction is a policy choice.
Tenant activists say CA law -- which allows landlords to charge market rate when a rent-stabilized (RSO) tenant leaves -- has created a tenant relocation INDUSTRY in which corporations are financially incentivized to acquire RSO housing and harass tenants out of their units
Amazing work @Pas4RentControl! May every other city follow suit, and may we all band together to #RepealCostaHawkins, #RepealEllisAct and win #RealRentControl / #VacancyControl for all tenants! Let's take the incentive out of eviction & build toward #DecommodifiedHousing!
📣 BREAKING NEWS!
Our campaign has collected 15,352 valid signatures to place rent control and just cause eviction protections on the November ballot! 1/3
I rose this morning at the legislature to ask the government to ban Above Guideline Rent Increases and support real rent control now. #YSW #Onpoli #TOpoli #Yorksouthweston #realrentcontrol https://t.co/INYZo8lGDe
Longtime queer activist Cleve Jones is being forced out of his apartment in the Castro after a new owner is doubling his rent to $5200.
