Vote NO on Measure H in Salinas! #MeasureH would repeal Salinas’ rent stabilization, just-cause eviction, anti-harassment and rental registration protections. A NO vote keeps all four in place!

A tax break meant to keep housing affordable is instead helping real estate investors boost their profits, sometimes without lowering rents at all. Public subsidies for affordable housing should benefit tenants, not pad investor returns. www.sfchronicle.com/projects/202...

CA tenants organize for rent stabilization. The real estate lobby spends millions to stop them. A new report by @powerswitchaction.org and EBASE exposes how corporate landlords buy influence, bully advocates and mislead voters to protect their profits.

When private equity buys homes, tenants pay the price. After Woodridge Apartments in Arcata, CA was sold, tenants say they faced new fees, lease issues, deteriorating conditions & intimidation as they tried to organize. Now they’re fighting back together! www.thecooldown.com/green-home/w...

When tenants organize, the real estate lobby spends big to stop them. From Concord to Salinas, corporate interests are fighting local rent stabilization & eviction protections. But tenants are organizing right back. Tenant power > landlord money! davisvanguard.org/2026/10/cali...

Building more market-rate housing & waiting for affordability to “filter” down isn’t a housing strategy for most people. We don’t have to wait decades for the market to deliver. We can build permanently affordable, publicly accountable #SocialHousing now. www.strongtowns.org/journal/2026...

#ElectionDay is coming up fast! Voters will decide measures that will shape eviction protections, affordable housing funding and tenants' rights for years to come. Tenants Together's 2026 voter guide breaks down the housing measures we're supporting and opposing across California.

Rent control terrifies landlords and real estate developers. That’s because it levels the playing field for renters and keeps housing affordable. www.citywatchla.com/housing/3341...

CA renters have endured some of the steepest rent hikes in the country for decades. Tenants shouldn’t have to keep handing over more and more of their income just to stay housed. We need rent control and tenant protections and more affordable housing built. www.ocregister.com/2026/09/21/c...

AMAZING news! LA just approved a record $466M for affordable housing, with most of the funding coming from #MeasureULA. This means new affordable homes and less people pushed into homelessness. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Pacifica tried to rein in short-term rentals. Airbnb spent BIG fighting back. When corporations profit from turning homes into investments, communities suffer. calmatters.org/politics/202...

The Inland Empire was once where Californians could go to find affordable housing. Now rents there are soaring too. You can’t find “somewhere cheaper” anymore. We need affordable homes and strong tenant protections in every city in California. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Tenants Together @tenantstogether.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Tenant unions are on the rise because renters know that we’re stronger together. When tenants organize, we fight rent hikes, unsafe conditions, displacement, and corporate landlords. Our homes are where we live. Our collective power is how we protect them. www.marketplace.org/story/2026/0...

In Madrid, neighbors rallied after an 87-year-old was evicted from the home where she’d lived for 70 years. This is what solidarity looks like. For elders, eviction is life threatening. When we organize, we win! www.aljazeera.com/video/newsfe...

A home should be a place to live, build community, and put down roots, not an investment vehicle for corporate profit.

Amazing news! Rent control is moving forward in #SantaBarbara. The SB Tenants Union and CAUSE have worked very hard on this and it is a historic moment. Let’s keep up the fight for affordability and tenants rights! www.independent.com/2026/09/23/s...

SF rents have jumped nearly 25% in a year, and evictions are on the rise. That’s not a comeback for the tenants being priced out of their communities. A “booming” economy that displaces the people who already live there is unacceptable. www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/s...

Dozens of tenants in ArtHaus buildings have filed complaints or lawsuits over mold, pests, and delayed repairs. Now they’re organizing against a landlord that markets their homes as “workforce housing.” Tenants know when the system isn’t working for them! sfstandard.com/2026/09/15/a...

Homelessness fell 3.3% nationally in 2025, the first decline since 2016. But look closer: individual and chronic homelessness hit record highs. A one-night count can’t tell the whole story. As rents rise, more people are being pushed into homelessness. shelterforce.org/2026/09/18/h...

A brutal rental market may force tenants to compromise on space, location, or amenities. But basic safety and habitability isn’t negotiable. No matter how competitive the market gets, landlords have a responsibility to provide safe homes. www.kqed.org/news/1209862...

More workers are taking on second jobs just to stay afloat. That’s not “hustle culture.” It’s what happens when wages don’t keep up with rent. Tenants shouldn’t need multiple jobs just to keep a roof over their heads. www.businessinsider.com/college-educ...

Groceries. Gas. Utilities. Rent. Angelenos are getting squeezed from every direction. And housing remains one of the biggest costs: average rent for a 950-square-foot apartment is now $3,084/month. 🤯 LA needs affordable homes, not another rent hike. www.latimes.com/business/sto...

CA is in an affordable housing crisis yet funding for homes through the state’s climate program has been nearly wiped out, potentially impacting 177 projects statewide. Our public dollars should fund homes and communities, not corporate giveaways. capitolweekly.net/california-l...

CA students shouldn’t have to choose between tuition, food and rent. Skyrocketing housing costs are pushing students into overcrowded homes, long commutes and housing insecurity. Affordable housing is an education issue, too. edsource.org/2026/califor...

Renters shouldn’t have to pay an application fee just to find out their pet isn’t allowed. #SB1296 would require CA landlords to disclose pet policies upfront, before renters spend money applying for a home. Basic transparency shouldn’t be too much to ask! www.axios.com/local/san-fr...

Portland is putting $17.5M toward #SocialHousing, creating a revolving fund to take homes and land off the speculative market and keep them permanently affordable. It’s a start toward housing for people, not profit. shelterforce.org/2026/08/21/p...

Angelenos shouldn’t lose their livelihoods over small amounts of rent debt. A new proposal would strengthen eviction protections by requiring tenants to owe at least one month’s fair market rent before a landlord can evict for nonpayment. lapublicpress.org/2026/09/la-r...

People with the lowest incomes are struggling to find homes while thousands of affordable units sit empty. If the people who need affordable housing most can’t access it, the system isn’t working. We need to fix the barriers keeping people out. www.latimes.com/world-nation...

Rent is already too damn high. Renters shouldn’t get nickel-and-dimed by junk fees on top of it. States and cities have the power to crack down on hidden and excessive rental fees and protect tenants where federal law falls short. www.nclc.org/resources/wh...

In SF, tenants can face eviction over any amount of unpaid rent. Supervisor Jackie Fielder wants to change that. Her proposal would bar evictions unless a tenant owes more than one month of fair market rent, helping prevent needless displacement. missionlocal.org/2026/09/san-...

#LaborDay is a reminder that the rights we have were won because working people organized & fought for them. That same collective power lives in the tenant movement.

Renters shouldn’t have to pay bills they aren’t allowed to verify. Across LA, tenants are organizing against soaring shared utility charges and demanding to see the math behind what they owe. If landlords can charge it, tenants should be able to see it. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Renters shouldn’t be shut out of clean energy just because they don’t own their roofs. Two bills headed to the Governor’s desk could expand access to community and plug-in solar, helping more CA renters lower their energy bills. www.latimes.com/environment/...
