603 renter households displaced by the LA fires have lost FEMA housing aid, with no replacement program in place.
Homeowners received a 12-month extension. Renters got just 3 months.
Disaster recovery must not leave tenants behind.

The Wall Street Journal wants you to believe that rent stabilized apartments are sitting vacant because landlords can’t afford to repair apartments.
The truth is that these landlords delay repairs for years and decades, and are now trying to force New York to let them rent at market value so they can make more money.
We broke it down.
Maricarmen Abascal, 87, died after being evicted from her home of 70 years following a massive rent hike.
We mourn her loss and stand with her loved ones and the tenants across Spain fighting in her memory. No one should be displaced for profit.

In Vienna, 50-60% of residents live in #SocialHousing. That's what happens when a city treats housing as a public good, not a commodity.
We can build cities that serve people instead of landlord profits.

A tax break meant to keep housing affordable is instead helping real estate investors boost their profits, sometimes without lowering rents at all.
Public subsidies for affordable housing should benefit tenants, not pad investor returns.

CA tenants organize for rent stabilization. The real estate lobby spends millions to stop them.
A new report by PowerSwitch Action and @workingeastbay exposes how corporate landlords buy influence, bully advocates & mislead voters to protect their profits

When private equity buys homes, tenants pay the price.
After Woodridge Apartments in Arcata, CA was sold, tenants say they faced new fees, lease issues, deteriorating conditions & intimidation as they tried to organize. Now they’re fighting back together!

When tenants organize, the real estate lobby spends big to stop them.
From Concord to Salinas, corporate interests are fighting local rent stabilization & eviction protections. But tenants are organizing right back.
Tenant power > landlord money!

Building more market-rate housing & waiting for affordability to “filter” down isn’t a housing strategy for most people.
We don’t have to wait decades for the market to deliver. We can build permanently affordable, publicly accountable #SocialHousing now.

Vote NO on Measure H in Salinas!
#MeasureH would repeal Salinas’ rent stabilization, just-cause eviction, anti-harassment and rental registration protections. A NO vote keeps all four in place!
Defending our elections means making sure every tenant is heard. On November 3rd we have the chance to expand rent control, fund affordable housing, and reduce homelessness in California!

Rent control terrifies landlords and real estate developers. That’s because it levels the playing field for renters and keeps housing affordable.

CA renters have endured some of the steepest rent hikes in the country for decades. Tenants shouldn’t have to keep handing over more and more of their income just to stay housed. We need rent control and tenant protections and more affordable housing built

NO on Measure H - Salinas
Measure H would repeal Salinas’ rent stabilization, just-cause eviction, anti-harassment and rental registration protections. A NO vote keeps all four in place!
NO on Proposition 45 @noprop45ca
Prop 45 would fast-track costly polluting projects like data centers, forest clear-cutting and pipelines.
YES on Proposition I - San Francisco
Ensures voter-approved funds are finally spent on traditional affordable housing, innovative social housing, and eviction defense–all without raising taxes on anyone.
#ElectionDay is coming up fast!
Voters will decide measures that will shape eviction protections, affordable housing funding & tenants' rights for years to come.
Tenants Together's 2026 voter guide breaks down the housing measures we're supporting & opposing across California.
