Blackstone really tried, and failed, to deregulate rent stabilized units in StuyTown/Cooper Village. Solidarity with the tenants at StuyTown-Peter Cooper Village on their major victory! Organizing gets the goods ✊🏽

To end the COVID state of emergency without creating permanent protections to avoid a potentially massive eviction/renter state of emergency would be irresponsible, and a missed opportunity to keep vulnerable tenants in their homes and off the streets.

Editorial: L.A.'s eviction moratorium will end, but tenant protections should continue
The lessons of the pandemic cannot be forgotten. Renter protections, rent relief and landlord assistance can keep tenants housed and landlords in business.

@uhshanti
can't overstate how many of California's tenancy rules (or rather the lack thereof) are stupid, cruel, and easily fixable if "homelessness prevention" were actually an issue Sacramento took seriously instead of grandstanding on the bones of its most disadvantaged constituents

If @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom, the AG @RobBonta & the Legislature want to make a tiny bit of headway in preventing homelessness, they should increase the number of days that tenants have to Answers their UDs & punish landlords who use rely on sewer servicers to evict tenants

I wrote about South LA tenants pushing Boston University to accept a community land trust’s offer to purchase their homes. BU got the property for free ($0) from a wealthy alum, and wants to sell to developers who would evict over 100 people

Tenants demand Boston University allow community control over the homes, rather than sell them to developers who would evict the community.

Never mind that the whole premise that if a city technically has enough shelter beds they can go around harassing unhoused people and throwing away their belongings is, at best, an extreme technicality. Most shelters are bug and vermin infested, violent and dehumanizing

Mayor @LondonBreed just lied to the press and said the city is spending enough on shelter and people are just refusing services, but in the court of law the city was forced to tell the truth :) twitter.com/sfchronicle/st…

The trend in Ninth Circuit law is very clear: build adequate shelter before conducting sweeps (or whatever you want to call your program of moving people and taking their stuff). That’s not what’s “right” or my preference—it’s what the constitution requires.

This is key to the whole thing. We will *never* end homelessness as long as evictions and rising rents push people out of their homes faster than we can house them! We need social housing, rent controls, and eviction protections to stop it at the source!

The 2019 LA count showed 54,882 people *newly became homeless* that year. (Simultaneously, about 50,000 people exited homelessness.) Karen Bass can talk all she wants about getting people into motels. But the ending of COVID eviction protections will guarantee this gets worse.

“Terrorizes them until they leave or die” is the manifest policy in almost every major city and it seems useful to point this out. To call it this. Different variations on Whack-A-Poor

When their luck runs out, they become homeless. Studies suggest that about 40% of evicted individuals become unhoused in some way. Then, the City of Minneapolis terrorizes them until they leave or die. twitter.com/kian_ava/statu

With the stroke of a pen,

could stop corporate landlords from throwing millions of people into the streets. Ball's in your court now, Joe.

Housing experts have drafted an executive order to rein in skyrocketing rents and keep tenants in their homes. All President Biden has to do is sign it. jacobin.com/2022/12/biden-
