Top Tweets for #UnionAtHome
@blockedpunt @KCTenants SF tenants have won huge demands against corporate landlords w/ rent strikes. Language access, long-deferred maintenance, rent rollbacks, and even a buidling transfer to the city's land trust. Rent strikes work. Everyone should demand the right to a #UnionAtHome
Great @nytimes piece on REP member org @housingrightsSF! Read about HRC’s work with the Veritas Tenants Assoc – and how they have been using the #RightToOrganize or #UnionAtHome ordinance to organize Veritas tenants. Thank you @hknightsf + @amyosborneamy! https://t.co/OPQFgnNqfm
After months of union-busting tactics & refusals to negotiate, the members began a supermajority #RentStrike on 9/1. Eight days later, Veritas agreed to recognize their #UnionAtHome, and they came to the table yesterday.
These tenants began organizing a #UnionAtHome over 1 year ago, but until now Veritas has rejected their petitions without providing any evidence. Tenants felt their signatures were discounted because Veritas only attempted to confirm with them in English—which few of them speak.
Since #UnionAtHome 1.0 took effect in April 2022, tenants have formed unions in 50+ buildings (1,000+ units) across every supervisor district of SF! The update has more concrete language requiring landlords to negotiate in good faith, & accommodations for monolingual tenants.
SF Sups on the Rules Committee unanimously passed a 2.0 version of our & @conniechansf's #UnionAtHome legislation this week, & we couldn’t be more excited for this next stage of tenant union power! The leg will now head to the full Board. @UESF @mattdorsey @ahshasafai
With their neighbors & the City behind them, the residents of 709 Geary St & 320 14th St have this message for Veritas: Recognize & bargain in good faith with our tenant associations on the issues that affect us, including terms of sale for our buildings! #VTAWontPay #UnionAtHome
Veritas is breaking the law by violating SF’s #UnionAtHome ordinance—as @SFCityAttorney Chiu declared last week—& rapidly losing control of their massive debts, putting tenants at risk. It’s clear the fate of SF rent control is now in the hands of the tenants, & the VTA is ready.
Veritas Tenants Association member Lenea Maibaum: “While action by the City is good & essential, VTA members continue to urge Veritas to respect its own tenants by coming to the bargaining table in good faith on the issues we’ve raised.” #VTAContractNow #VTAStrong #UnionAtHome
I am a proud member of the brand-new @housingrightsSF union, certified this morning! Cheers to my fantastic colleagues at HRCSF for taking this step to build a better workplace & show the tenant associations we work with what #UnionPower can do! #UnionAtHome #UnionStrong
It's official—a majority of Housing Rights Committee of SF workers voted to unionize & join @OPEIU Local 29! We're excited to have received voluntary recognition from HRCSF's directors today & look forward to working together on a contract. #UnionPower #UnionStrong
As soon as #UnionAtHome took effect, Veritas began a union-busting campaign against its tenants, restricting organizing activities in common spaces & filing a massive number of Unlawful Detainers (UDs) against their lowest-income tenants, usually for COVID-related rent debt. 2/
SF’s #UnionAtHome law turns 1 yr old today! To celebrate, we're sharing some recent tenant victories involving this legislation. First up: The Veritas Tenants Association, whose fight with SF's largest landlord was featured today by @ViceNews! 🧵⬇️ https://t.co/7t4G30TNOw
NEXT WEEK: Join us for our @UCBLaborCenter webinar where we'll discuss wins & setbacks in tenant organizing since SF's groundbreaking #UnionAtHome law took effect in April. Let's take this collective bargaining tool to the next level!
RSVP @ https://t.co/XUK31pi3ZK. See ya there!
Expect to see more VTA buildings join in this structure test as we ramp up the pressure on Veritas to respond to tenants’ needs and negotiate a #VTAContractNow!

Veritas has yet to give an official response to the VTA’s request to open negotiations, but the fact that they took down these posters TWICE—in violation of SF’s #UnionAtHome law—indicates their intent to continue their pattern of union-busting. So the VTA’s fight continues!
Thank you @MLNow & @chuqin_jiang for shining a light on the Morales family’s right to #RentControl & the community power they’ve built through organizing! As Melissa said after last week’s action, “I imagine that they’re going to start taking us seriously now.” #UnionAtHome
Renters at 140 Julian Ave. have formed a union to save a Latinx family from being evicted. @housingrightsSF said it is one of the first uses of #UnionAtHome that allows tenants to form a union to negotiate with landlords.

SF’s #UnionAtHome law was passed in April to empower tenants to set their own national precedent, one where we beat corporate power with collective power & keep our city affordable to working people. It’s time use it & bring rent to the negotiation table! https://t.co/nMLX5nqDkG
See our thread on the Morales Family to read the incredible story of how when faced with a Costa-Hawkins rent increase, they got to work organizing their building under SF's #UnionAtHome ordinance! ⬇️ https://t.co/rH5CoDx1Xi
Melissa Morales & Edgar Arturo Chay have lived in their rent-controlled Mission apt at 140 Julian for 26 yrs. Due to a CA law called the Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act, a sudden rent increase of ~200% could price them out of the only home their daughter Leidy has ever known. 🧵
