Albany skyline as transparent as the budget process this morning…

Any proposal that doesn’t offer meaningful Good Cause protections for Upstate isn’t a deal worth doing. Upstate tenants deserve #GoodCause and they need it now

UPDATE: now 45 lawmakers have joined the call.

There will be no housing deal that exempts countless tenants from #GoodCause while putting rent stabilized tenants in danger.

Thank you Pamela Hunter, George Alvarez, and Assemblymember Steven Raga for speaking out.

NEW: 38 NYS electeds say NO to rolling back rent stabilization in exchange for a gutted #GoodCause :

Sen. Mike Gianaris: 'The people of this great state deserve no less than our full efforts to protect all tenants, not pit one group of renters against another.”

We need Governor Kathy Hochul
to not roll back NY’ tenants protection laws. Call your rep and demand that they protect rent stabilization and pass #GoodCause

It's time for state leaders to choose a side

Public comment at a nyc council meeting

NEW: “Lawmakers must stand up to the real estate industry’s rapacious efforts to pad their own pockets, and reject efforts to recreate the pre-2019 dynamics that put a target on the backs of rent stabilized tenants.

'It's time for state leaders to choose a side.'

Our statement.

It’s become almost impossible to afford to live in NY because of real estate GREED.

rebny’s jacking up rents, gutting rent stabilization, & trying to block a housing package so they can keep getting richer.

It’s time for state leaders to stand w/ us & fight back. #GoodCause

New Yorkers, did you know you’re paying to subsidize the gas industry & build pipelines across NY?

Governor Kathy Hochul, Sen. Stewart-Cousins & Carl E. Heastie can change that by passing the full #NYHEAT Act in the budget & save us money in the process. Let’s do it! citylimits.org/2024/03/29/why…

OUR HOMES, OUR POWER! ✊🏡🏙️
Over 1,000 tenants took to the capitol today to say NO business as usual during a housing crisis! We demand #HAVP , #GoodCause , and investment in affordable housing. Albany, you are accountable to the people over real estate interests!

1,000+ NYers are picketing at the Capitol today because housing shouldn't be a luxury! 🏠✊

We need statewide #GoodCause so that every New Yorker has a stable home.

Let’s get it done Governor Kathy Hochul, Sen. Stewart-Cousins, & Carl E. Heastie!

When tenants’ rights are under attack, what do we do? STAND UP FIGHT BACK!

Over a thousand tenants standing STRONG at the Capitol to say no roll backs to the rent laws and pass #GoodCause .

POWERFUL! Housing justice elected allies join the 1,000+ tenants in our picket line at the NY State Capitol to call on leadership to pass key legislation to keep immigrant and working class New Yorkers housed. #GoodCause #HAVP

TOPA, the Tenant Opportunity to Purchase Act, would give tenants the right to make the first offer on their building if their landlord decides to sell it. One could call this bill radical but we’re here in Albany today because we know it’s tenable and righteous! Tenant Power! ✊🏽

Fight, fight, fight, housing is a human right ✊

That’s not just a slogan — that’s a belief that runs deep within my bones ever since my landlord tried to evict me and my grandmother.

We’ll solve #NY ’s housing crisis by ⬆️ supply AND protecting tenants.

Our members have been out all week in New Rochelle in Westchester County gathering signatures from tenants to demand Nathalia Fernandez supports statewide #GoodCause eviction.

Sen. Fernandez, the message from your constituents is clear:

THE RENT IS TOO DAMN HIGH!

TOMORROW!

Rally against the 'vacancy reset' and for full Good Cause Eviction with us, Housing Justice For All, Tenants & Neighbors, Met Council on Housing, Tony Simone, Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal!

Huge win for tenants’ rights! However, the fight isn’t over—stay tuned for more updates and events.

BREAKING: Homeless New Yorkers disrupt Gov Hochul’s representative’s testimony during housing budget hearing.

Governor Kathy Hochul has consistently blocked HAVP, which would house over 20,000 NYers if passed.
