In what could have been thin reformist advocacy, @NorthNJDSA organizers successfully engaged in true movement politics with a focus on non-reformist reforms...insisting on a program to grow popular support and brought class struggle messaging to the doors. socialistcall.com/2023/12/21/rig…

Glad to see a statewide right to counsel for evictions in this plan. Nationally, more than 80% of landlords are represented by a lawyer, compared to just 3% of renters. This is about keeping people in their homes, economic & racial justice, & ensuring a fairer judicial system.

Housing is a key part of the affordability crisis in NJ. Lack of supply forces owners/renters to live beyond their means. Our plan will double supply, tie state funding to goals, change incentive programs + more - you can learn more at stevenfulop.com/housing-econom…

The fight for housing justice is never over! We’re excited to see our friends and coalition partners again after our victory at City Council. The victories to come, though, will be not won there but at our neighbors door 🚪 🌹 See you then!

In 1959 NYC tried to use urban renewal to displace residents in Cooper Square. A motley crew of working class residents showed up to protect their community from being displaced in favor of wealthier residents. If this sounds familiar it’s because this is still our fight today 🧵

“a landlord might refuse to renew a lease after a tenant demands repairs. Or they might file an eviction case with no grounds to evict in order to punish a tenant.” More here ⬇️ on soft evictions

“Case filings have skyrocketed in some cities… But those numbers don’t count all the renters forced out without being formally evicted, sometimes by intimidation or through other, illegal tactics.” By @hithisischris. Via @Marketplace marketplace.org/2023/08/30/wit…
