It's spooky season, which means it's time be on the lookout for ghosts, ghouls, and other nefarious actors like greedy corporations and landlords. Learn more about how they're trying to use your ballot to hold onto power and keep our money for themselves. unecolorado.org/our-work/resources

Last week, UNE members spoke in front of Westminster City Council to recommend that the council vote yes on a new rental property maintenance code. We all win when our local governments pass laws that protect renters and reign in corporate landlords.

Listen as Benica and Kalah share their experience living in a Greystar complex. But like Kalah says, "it doesn’t have to be this way. We can have healthy, happy, and stable communities." Help hold Greystar accountable by going to secure.everyaction.com/56NxV3g3JEOw…

This November, voters across Colorado will have two opportunities to help reshape our tax system and make billionaires really pay what they owe. By voting YES on Prop NN and Amendment 87, we can decide on a fully-funded future for Colorado schools and communities.

Yesterday evening, renters from Greystar properties across Westminster gathered to demand dignified homes from their corporate landlord. Renters joined with community and Westminster City Council members to create public accountability for the private demands that were handed to Greystar earlier.

Greystar is one of the largest corporate landlords in the country and manages properties across Westminster where residents have seen unacceptable issues from living conditions to improper fees. That’s why we’ve been organizing for months to meet with their leadership and make our demands clear.

For UNE member Sehra, people power is the key to stopping corporations from running our communities. She knows we're more powerful than dollar bills. Do you agree with her?

Westminster renters are gathering together to put pressure on their corporate landlord, Greystar, to accept their demands for safe, stable, and affordable housing. With YOUR help, we can hold corporate landlords accountable and make sure that all of us are able to live in stable homes.

sometimes you just have to let people know what's really going on. When the wealthy few get away with rigging the system and prioritizing their own profits, our communities are the ones that suffer.

This Monday, UNE member Debra spoke at the Colorado stop of the @fobaction.bsky.social  Who Pays? Bus Tour. Together, the speakers shared their stories. Debra said it best: “When billionaires rig our tax systems for their profit, they’re not just threatening Medicaid. They’re threatening lives.”

Corporate landlords love to say that the issue is a lack of housing. But they're the ones holding onto thousands of homes and setting the rents higher than we can afford. Those corporations and their billionaire CEOs refuse to see the real solution: safe, stable and affordable housing for everyone.

UNE member Tony Torrez wrote a letter to the editor of the Westminster Window. Tony's message was clear: our next governor must support overturning the ban on local control of rents. And Tony's not alone. Communities across Colorado need a governor who will support overturning the ban.

Programs like Medicaid are essential for keeping people like Cheryl healthy, stable, and housed. Right now, billionaires are leveraging the federal budget to hoard wealth and make it harder for people to access the supports their lives depend on. We can't let that go on.

Our communities need Colorado to repeal the statewide ban on local control of rents so that we can bring housing costs down and provide safety and stability for renters across our state. It's not that complicated, and it's a great idea. What's not to like?

This year, Colorado will get a new governor. And they’ll have a choice to make: listen to our communities or listen to corporate greed. Hard-working people across our state need a governor who will stand with them and support local rent stabilization. #HomesForAll #COPolitics #LocalControlOfRent

landlords love to say that rents are going down and our communities are getting more affordable, but for who? Luxury apartments might be a bit cheaper, but that doesn't mean they're affordable for most of us.

Greedy corporate landlords love to claim that rents are falling, but that doesn't quite fit with what UNE members are seeing. When we listen to real people, this story becomes a lot harder to believe. More at coloradosun.com/2026/04/25/denver-r…

UNE members are fighting for strong renter protections at the local level, pushing for a new tax system at the state level and meeting with their federal representatives. We'd say that's pretty busy.

Greedy corporate landlords just don't understand how to make decisions that aren't profit-first. When our communities work together and build based on what really impacts our lives, we can create a future where all of us can actually thrive.

Corporate landlords keep raising rents and pushing families out of their homes, all just to raise their bottom line. We need to hold these greedy corporations accountable so that we can actually make ends meet. Everyone in our communities deserves a safe, stable, and affordable place to call home.

Greedy corporations and the politicians who work for them are rigging the rules so that only they win. Instead of earning our votes this fall, they’re trying to change who gets to vote & how. But we’ll show up to decide our future, choose our leaders and ensure all our neighbors can do the same.
