Housing is one of our most fundamental needs and should not be a commodity. The rising cost of housing in Los Angeles leads to displacement, makes it harder for workers to live close to where they work, and reduces the political power of workers.

Our campaign is fighting back. We seek to help tenants organize themselves, encouraging participation in tenants unions just as workers participate in labor unions. Only through their own organized self-defense can tenants prevent displacement, provide political education, build a base for legislation that empowers themselves and their organizations, and push for that legislation.

Our Power to the Tenants campaign is fighting evictions and rent increases, and seeking to organize and build tenant power. Sign up today to receive updates about our work and learn how you can get involved!
