We're defending immigrants and trans folks from housing discrimination. We’re opposing attacks on eviction notice requirements. We’re preparing Section 8 tenants just in case their vouchers are denied. But we need you! Chip in $5, $50 or what you can! https://t.co/AjRP1fGHjr

Extreme heat is a public health emergency for millions of Californians. For Pedro Zacarias & his family, it isn’t just a threat outdoors, but within their home as well. Read more from Pedro & why he’s urging state leaders to pass #SB655. #CALeg @CAgovernor

As climate change makes for more 100-degree days, California legislators are considering a bill to set a maximum indoor temperature standard for homes.

CA legislators have been considering a maximum indoor cooling standard but lack the political will to battle the corporate landlord lobby. Landlords shouldn’t profit while tenants bake through extreme heat! This should be a basic tenant protection. https://t.co/paw5uBJZbL

Teacher shortages are also housing shortages. When rents eat up paychecks, educators are forced to leave the communities that need them most. Ensuring affordable housing is essential if we want schools to thrive. https://t.co/cTq8L63F7H

Tenant unions are rolling out a new playbook for the Trump era—organizing across cities, resisting “reno-victions,” and flexing political muscle when the federal government fails renters. We love to see tenants building collective power! https://t.co/VfpvfXpBlA

“It got to the point where he was dying on us.” Activist Lupe Martinez shared how his son’s life-saving treatment lapsed when he couldn’t get Medi-Cal until Kern County Hospital stepped in with emergency coverage. This is why healthcare access matters! https://t.co/o7HNnl87YT

Tenant screening tools use evictions and criminal records to shut people out of housing, even when records are flawed or misleading. We need strong tenant protections to ensure fair housing! https://t.co/vaOrBzGXLL

Women of color, people with disabilities and LGBTQIA+ people continue to face housing discrimination. The latest report from @nwlc shows why we need bold tenant protections rooted in gender, racial, and disability justice. https://t.co/mI24GgQaB9

Black workers in the Bay Area have been locked out of high-paying fields & concentrated in low-wage jobs. Prosperity for some means poverty and struggle for others. For more insight from the Bay Area Equity Atlas: https://t.co/rbr87r25P6

Greystar has been sued again, this time by tenants being charged $1,800 a month to live with mold, broken locks, and no hot water. How many lawsuits until @GreystarApts takes responsibility? https://t.co/iLjQHpZxvX

Kansas City tenants at Independence Towers just proved the power of collective action. After a 247-day rent strike, they won rent stability, major repairs, and recognition of their union. Tenant organizing works! https://t.co/SKE1S91WYy

The LA City Attorney is blocking a critical legal program for thousands of renters facing eviction. The program (LAFLA) has defended 4,700+ tenants and delivered $11 million in rent relief. Tenants need help, not bureaucratic delay. https://t.co/T4WI9Ld7hc

LA County tenants organized after the #EatonFire left their homes filled with ash & smoke. Now landlords are required to clean fire-damaged units or face fines. Tenant power delivers again, but it shouldn't take a fight to get safe living conditions! https://t.co/Mwtq6I7KDP

Shoutout to @LATenantsUnion and @StrikeDebt for standing strong with these tenants!!
Tenants at LA’s Virgil Square & Mozaic apartments are on strike against Equity Residential’s predatory billing scheme. Utility bills have doubled overnight with no transparency. These tenants are rightfully demanding fair treatment & accountability! https://t.co/bjIuRVvXnK

The controversial billing system their landlord uses was banned in West Hollywood three years ago.

CA lawmakers are considering #AB630, which would let cities tow RVs (even ones where people live). This criminalizes survival and pushes people deeper into homelessness. We must oppose it and demand real solutions. @CalMatters

Starting 2027, landlords in unincorporated LA County must keep rentals below 82°F. This law keeps tenants safe while also giving small landlords time to comply with the new rules. Tenants will still need to file complaints to trigger enforcement! https://t.co/lM1zrMjkXl

The DOJ just forced @GreystarApts, the largest landlord in the US, to stop using @RealPage’s rent-fixing software. Price-fixing isn’t “the free market” — it’s corporate greed exploiting millions of renters. https://t.co/qZc2nUCTyo
