Public hearing round 2! So proud of all the Ithaca Tenants Union tenants who organized and spoke out tonight — see the thread for some excerpts ⬇️⬇️⬇️ open.spotify.com/track/3NlLmKBJ…

Ithaca is now the FOURTH City to opt into #GoodCause -- under the strongest terms possible, covering nearly every Ithaca renter. Governor Kathy Hochul tried to leave upstate out. But upstate tenants are organized. We're winning the protections we deserve.

BACK TO BACK WINS IN POUGHKEEPSIE AND ITHACA LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOO

MASSIVE WIN FOR TENANT POWER IN ITHACA LFG

Governor Kathy Hochul This isn't the first time Ithaca Tenants Union has made history. Last year, Ithaca Tenant Union elected a TENANT MAJORITY to their Common Council -- a first in Ithaca history! Now that renter majority council is delivering for their constituents with #GoodCause.

From 2021 to 2024. From the streets of Ithaca to the campaign trail to City Hall. The tenants of Ithaca transformed an apathetic, majority owner council into a progressive, tenant majority government that put them first. A Better World is Possible- if we organize for it. 🌹❤️‍🔥🌹

Huge congrats to the Ithaca Tenants Union activists, ITU endorsees, and Mayor Robert Gesualdo Cantelmo on a major victory for tenants rights tonight. ITU: renters in Ithaca like me owe you so much gratitude for your tireless work advocating on our behalf in court, in chambers, and in the streets.

Ithaca's Common Council passes Good Cause Eviction Law by an 8-2 vote. Mayor Robert Gesualdo Cantelmo calls it "a resounding victory for housing fairness, housing stability, and a fair deal for landlord-tenant relations." 14850.com/071137312-good…

Biden calls for 5% rent caps. This is the third such call, and the most specific. Good, but tenants need immediate action, not just talk. POTUS could cap rents in the millions of units with federally-backed loans ASAP and he should.
