Although we are disappointed 305 didn’t pass, we are proud of our campaign and the power we built to fight for tenant rights in Denver. As we catch our breath and plan future efforts, we want to extend our gratitude for everyone involved and share how people can stay plugged in.

The single biggest predictor of eviction is a child in the home.
Keep mothers housed, vote yes on Measure 26-238.
Renters’ rights are women’s rights. Happy Mother’s Day.

The Clean Water For All CO coalition is fighting for #CleanWater4All with the Mobile Home Park Water Quality bill. “Where someone lives shouldn’t determine whether they have access to clean, safe water."👏@ProtegeteCO @Velasco4CO @ConservationCO coloradonewsline.com/2023/04…

Colorado State Senators are adding a BigPharma workaround that makes the EpiPen affordability program in HB23-1002 less effective. (1/13) medium.com/@cedp/colorado-st…

In March, there were 1,195 eviction filings in Denver- a 5 year record. That’s nearly 3,000 people dragged into court because they can’t pay rent or because their lease is expiring and they have nowhere to go. 3,000 people in Denver! In one month!
1195 evictions filed in Denver in March. Highest month in at least the last five years.

Increased legal protections are great! Let's make sure these protections are enforced in the courtroom.

Evictions aren’t just an urban issue. We need statewide #GoodCause. usatoday.com/story/news/grap…

Just Cause Eviction protections secure a future where no family has to live in fear of being unjustly evicted.

Happy International Women's Day!
Black female renters were filed against for eviction at double the rate (or higher!) of white renters in 17 states—including Oregon—(2012-2016 data)
Eviction representation is gender justice and racial justice

🧵 There are 0️⃣ renters on City Council — but 50% of Denver residents & 70% of my D10 neighbors are renters, like me!
I’ll fight for a multi-pronged solution to Denver’s housing crisis to make sure there are homes for our neighbors at every income level:

It doesn't matter if your landlord owns one property or many. You deserve a fair trial and assumed innocent until proven guilty.

You can't call the justice system fair if there are people who can't afford to take time off work or pay for a lawyer. Justice isn't supposed to favor those who can afford representation.

Loved this article about community organizers touring social housing in Vienna. Social housing is not a utopia-racism still exists there and must be addressed. Still and yet, "If you want to reduce crime and improve health outcomes, house people"

My neighbors-housed & unhoused-inspired this grassroots campaign. There are 0 renters on council. 70% of us rent in D10. Others are forced to sleep outside, getting evicted, & losing their small biz bc of systemic barriers & not enough leaders motivated to do something about it.

Local 7 is a proud coalition partner in the campaign to pass Colorado's Fair Work Week bill. Unpredictable & unstable work hours mean that people don’t know when or how much they’ll be working from wk to wk. Unstable work hours throw families’ lives into chaos. #COFairWorkweek

To landlords it's "just business"
To us it's our homes
