Tenants Taking Control

We are a group that is fighting to keep our homes, and to be treated with respect by our landlord(s) under the law.

The rent is too damn high. Join me and @housing4allNY in calling on our legislators to support universal rent control and green social housing for all.

Developers tore down a 5-story rent stabilized building and replaced it with 11 luxury units.

We can’t trust developers to solve our housing crisis. We need #GoodCause and green social housing — made by and for the people. https://t.co/Rm5oxDoArH

LONG overdue! After funding the predatory landlord Rafael Toledano who harassed, bought out & intimidated tenants from they're homes & then went belly up, my hedge fund landlord Madison Realty Capital went on to skirt rent regs by major frankensteining. https://t.co/i9xCm3VNL4

@olympiakazi THANK YOU 💐for speaking up for @TenTakeControl against @mrcrealestate in last night's @ManhattanCB3 Land Use meeting. MRC, a private equity firm, has shown disregard for tenants here and we have proof. Businesses like MRC don't belong in our 'hood. Will contact you.

STILL MORE FACTS:

More than 92,000 people are currently homelessness. Under Governor Cuomo, it was a 36% ⬆️.

Good Cause Eviction would guarantee a lease renewal to every tenant & limit rent increases to less than 1.5% of the Consumer Price Index (about 3% ⬆️).

Where are tenant protections? We have DUST ALL OVER, open covers, debris, & more. @mrcrealestate’s #Frankensteining construction is disrupting our lives daily. @nysfocus @c_werth @NewYorkStateAG @NYSHCR @levydina @govkathyhochul @HealthNYGov @rvisnauskas #stopfrankensteiningny

Weeks of dust and plastic covers open in multiple buildings. @mrcrealestate, we demand safe housing! Combining units is also shrinking #affordableapartments in #NYC now. @nytmetro @DavidFBrand @chrisychung @nyc_buildings @NYCMOPT @EKHudson @PIX11 #stopfrankensteiningny

What is frankensteining? #stopfrankensteiningny #Dystopian

[Tenants Taking Control @TenTakeControl]

@mrcrealestate warehoused our buildings for years & 3 ceilings collapsed in 1 building. They should not be allowed to warehouse or frankenstein causing great loss of affordable housing in NYC @NewYorkStateAG @NYSHCR @levydina @GovKathyHochul @rvisnauskas #stopfrankensteiningny
