Thank you for giving us the chance to talk about the potential new ordinances City Council is considering built on the work of tenant led organizing in Austin.

#AustinTexas is a city that strives to protect its residents from exploitation. The Tenant Relocation Ordinance changes we're bringing forward today will defend #tenantrights from those who would ignore them.

Thank you to BASTA for connecting me with the Santa Fe Tenant Association, and thank you to Sabino Pio Renteria, Ann Kitchen, and Kathie Tovo for your support.

The residents of Congress Mobile Home Park are at risk of being displaced. Occurrences like these are far too familiar for many here in Austin, especially in the South and Southeast Austin communities. (1/3)

The over 40 families that call this place home deserve basic dignity - regardless of which side of town they live in. I’ve asked for a meeting with the new property owner to explore options that bring the voices of this community to the table. (2/3)

As we continue to face rising costs and scarce affordable housing, we must ensure that Austinites can remain dignified and stay in the communities they helped shape. (3/3)

In one South Austin mobile home community, dozens of families are being evicted from land that they've lived on for decades. City Councilwoman Vanessa Fuentes 💃🏽 is working with BASTA to try and get guaranteed relocation assistance for these folks. kxan.com/news/local/aus…

Residents of the Congress Mobile Home Park will hold a vigil for the loss of their homes and a neighbor who died amidst the upheaval tonight at 7 p.m. at the park. The vigil is open to the public, as residents aim to gain community support. kut.org/austin/2022-07…

Today we heard from residents at ANOTHER mobile home community who are being evicted about a mile from the South Congress Mobile Home Community in D2. The displacement crisis in Austin is deepening and mobile home communities along the Project Connect line are being targeted!

The Congress Mobile Home Park Tenants Association has filed a lawsuit against the property's new owner. This has resulted in a temporary restraining order against their displacement until their case is heard. Read BASTA's press release here:
