For years we've heard horror stories about outrageous landlord behavior, so we finally decided to make space on our website for a landlord wall of shame! Visit this link to anonymously share your story MyLandlordIsTrash.com. #TenantPower
Journalist @thomasbirm: “if you as a landlord are unhappy about…how difficult evicting tenants with cause is, you are more than welcome to use your American freedom to stop being a landlord at any time…[we don’t] have the freedom, though, to suddenly stop needing shelter”
More preferential treatment and giveaways for homeowners 🙄

Commish @CommissionerRG is dangerous for our city.
Today @CityAuditorPDX confirmed what has been reported and exposed in previous independent evaluations - @CommissionerRG and @PDXFire are not committed to the full potential and growth of Portland Street Response. A must read from @wweek ⬇️ wweek.com/news/2024/01/1…
Today is Houseless Day of Remembrance. @sisterspdx, @StreetRoots, @pdxsaintslove, Groundscore Association, and @multco_johs invite us all to come together on the longest night of the year to grieve our community members who lost their lives while living on the streets.
NYC: If you have no heat and you already told the landlord, the first thing you should do is call 311. What happens next is that they’ll send an inspector from the housing department to come to your apt. portal.311.nyc.gov/article/?kanum…
The site for the Worst Evictors of the Bay Area has launched! From corporate to non-profit to former evictors, we profiled the top 30 bad actors in SF and Oakland. worstevictorsbayarea.org
Need more tenant power in your life? Next Wednesday, Dec 6 from 6:30 to 9pm join other renters and PTU members for a winter social at Baerlic (2239 SE 11th Ave). Bring your organizing ideas, housing issues and visions of tenant power in 2024! As always, pizza provided. 🍕
TAKE ACTION TODAY! We need your support! Please contact your Councilmember and demand TOPA to be on the City Council Agenda! Send an email TODAY to put TOPA on the council agenda:topa.good.do/yes2topa/agend…
City Council votes THIS WEDNESDAY on whether to allow landlords to raise the rents in RSO units 4-6% starting February 1, or to keep in place the current plan to allow increases of 7-9%. Landlord lobbyists at AAGLA are working the phones. Have you called your councilmember yet?
Hike strike summer continues into autumn!
Our West/North Local invites you to a 👻spooky👻 stroll at the Piedmont Ave. Halloween Parade this Saturday! Join TANC members for a night of tricks & treats, and meet families from all over Oakland. Members w/ kids encouraged to join! More details TBA.
"Oregon sees record-high unionization And many are small independent unions. In just the past month, strippers, vegan donut makers and thrift shop workers have all won union elections in Oregon.” opb.org/article/2023/1…
"Because of the limited housing inventory, landlords are able to keep rents high." Thanks @alex_zee for pointing out landlords' agency here in *choosing* to increase rents because they can. Rents don't just rise; landlords raise them. opb.org/article/2023/1…
Join us Saturday October 14th at noon for this month’s Eviction defense canvass. Landlords can run but they can’t hide! A spectre is haunting!
They were wrong about how much the WGA could win Analysts often look at things w the perspective that what corporate bosses say is actually true. We strike. Shut things down and make them choose. Thats how power works. Lets take that understanding into our scripts! #WGASTRONG
Oregon renters are in for another year of unsustainable (10%) rent increases in 2024. Meanwhile, remember this...

You people weren’t there. You have no idea what it’s like to have your shoulder’s bodily autonomy violated by a woman. This has nothing to do with trying to avoid the filthy poors.
A women touched his shoulder and then asked him questions on the MAX so now he wants a security detail and is refusing to ride public transportation from Goose Hollow to City Hall -- a truly treacherous stretch 🤭
“In 1980, when Reagan at the time, fired the PATCO workers (striking air traffic controllers) everyone in this country should have stood up and walked the hell out.”
"We want a general strike. We want everybody walking out just like they do in other countries." -@UAW President Shawn Fain speaking to the union today. The United Auto Workers set their contract to expire on May 1st, 2028. And they want other unions to join them.
Sometimes I remember that Portland’s motto is “The City That Works.”
Today @CityAuditorPDX confirmed what has been reported and exposed in previous independent evaluations - @CommissionerRG and @PDXFire are not committed to the full potential and growth of Portland Street Response. A must read from @wweek ⬇️ wweek.com/news/2024/01/1…
In council meeting, Rene Gonzalez falsely states data suggests substance use causes homelessness. "I think the data does indicate that substance use disorder is a substantial cause of people being unsheltered on the streets of Portland as well as other behavioral health issues."
