🏘️Tenant organizers with our #HomesGuarantee campaign shaped this policy for the better–this announcement is a potential step forward, AND we need the White House to do more to provide relief to tenants.

Today, @WhiteHouse announced new actions to protect renters–this is thanks to organizing from #HomesGuarantee tenant leaders, including CVH members who went to DC w/ @PplsAction.
It's a solid start, but we still need rent regulations & tenant protections. whitehouse.gov/briefing-room…
This morning, CVH member Margareth is in DC at the Dept of Housing and Urban Development to share her experience as a long-time NYCHA resident & tenant leader.
Everyone should have safe, accessible, sustainable, & permanently affordable housing!

Today, following a letter that @SenWarren and I led to the White House and months of tenant advocacy, we are seeing @POTUS take the first steps toward reining in a rental market that prioritizes people over profits. Check it out ⬇️ whitehouse.gov/briefing-room…
ICYMI: Thank you to @VICENews who covered the hard work, community power, and courage of the residents at TE mobile home park.

This year’s @CityofFresno annual budget process must be transparent, meaningful, inclusive, and responsive to ensure equitable investments for all Fresnans regardless of zip code, income, race, gender, immigration status, and housing circumstance. 🧵

A huge triumph for our brave clients, incl. @WeInvisible
and @FaithInFresno, and for accountability! A fave from the order (link in thread): despite claimed interests in public health and safety, "the intention of the ordinance is in reality simply to avoid public scrutiny."
A win to be thankful for! A federal judge has blocked a Fresno ordinance restricting advocates and reporters who try to highlight abuses during encampment sweeps. Thank you to the @ACLU_NorCal team and to @WeInvisible for your commitment to justice everyday! #HousingForAll – at Fresno, CA

TRAILS END: A Fresno Judge has approved the sale of Trails End Mobile Home Park to Harmony Communities for $1.7 million. Tenants against the sale coming out of the courtroom chanting “we will not be moved”.
The @CityofFresno has failed the community of #SaveTrailsEnd and continues to fail to protect renters and unhoused in Fresno.
Shame! Your constituents have been asking, pleading, crying, and demanding help, and you are deciding to idly watch. fresnobee.com/fresnoland/art… – at Fresno, CA
Yesterday, judge Culver-Kapetan failed the community, families, elderly & children of Trails End by approving the sale to Harmony, who the community has been organizing against for months!
This is NOT RIGHT, it is NOT JUST, we will continue to FIGHT! #Housing4All #HomesGuarantee – at Fresno, CA
