Renters in the City of Rockville are exempted from Montgomery County's new rent stabilization law 😢
BUT the Rockville City Council can pass an even stronger bill!
Join a canvass this Saturday to talk to Rockville renters about rent stabilization.

Thank you to @ypforprogress for coming to our February branch meeting to talk about banning consent searches in MoCo & restorative justice in MCPS. We also heard from candidates for branch steering and got updates on rent stabilization regulations and Palestine organizing.

Last year, thanks to tenants & organizers, @MoCoCouncilMD passed a historic law to limit rent increases and fees.
Now, the County Council must approve regulations to enforce rent stabilization.

Missed our teach-ins this month? We will have one more teach-in next month about both restorative justice in MCPS and consent searches. This teach-in will be held on Tuesday, January 9th at 6:30 PM. Shoot us a DM for the link :)

Petros Bein, a YPP member, explained basic Marxist terms to the group. By analyzing our issues through the lens of class conflict and anti-capitalism, we will be able to approach each of our problems in a more consistent way.

Last week, we had our final YPP teach-in of the year: “Community Control of the Police and the Environment.” Each speaker inspired us to take action in our communities; our only path to victory is through the power of the people!

YPP alumni over 35 years old are also invited. Because space is limited, spots for attendees who can attend both full days of the retreat will be prioritized.
