Yesterday I joined the People’s State of the City, along with @RentControlJC & advocates across the city, and called for #JerseyCity to build more affordable housing, enforce protections for tenants, stabilize taxes and improve our essential city services. hudsoncountyview.com/ali-mcg…

Two councilmen have accused a corporate landlord of not meeting the “basic minimum living standards” of its tenants while “gaming the system.”

This so-called “compromise” would decimate rent control in Hoboken and reward the landlord group that used shady tactics to force the issue onto the November ballot.

Portside Tenants deserve a huge win in this case, and tenants across Jersey City deserve power over corporate real estate to make housing a human right
Solidarity @RentControlJC!
Michele Hirsch, President of the Portside Towers West Tenant Association in Jersey City, said Tuesday, "This class action lawsuit is our chance to finally hold our landlord accountable…we're sending a clear message that tenants' rights cannot be ignored." patch.com/new-jersey/jersey-…

Portside tenants respond boldly to continued illegal rent increases and inaction on the part of the @StevenFulop administration.
Tenants are not powerless in the face of shameful corporate greed and complicit politicians!

Hard to write about any corruption story without reminding the public that Gov Murphy & the Leg just signed the OPRA bill to make politicians less transparent and accountable

If you’ve ever observed New Jersey politics and said “I wish there was more secrecy and backdoor dealing,” then boy does the NJ State Legislature have a bill for you!
If you’ve had the opposite reaction, then we need your help...

When will @StevenFulop and his council allies address this shameful and ongoing failure to enforce the city’s rent control ordinance?

Disheartened (though not surprised) by comments just now at the #JerseyCity city council meeting.
A very credible tenant described her recent experience of receiving an illegal rent increase, and then receiving inaccurate guidance from the Office of Rent Leveling. 1/

🚨URGENT ACTION NEEDED🚨
The fight to protect OPRA continues! Legislation could advance this month and we need your help to stop it. Tell your legislators to vote NO on A4045/S2930!

Tenants from Portside Towers are still giving the #JerseyCIty Council a piece of their minds.
“Equity is making a mockery of the rent control board decision ... They don’t think anything will ever be done. Prove them wrong."

As home ownership becomes an increasingly elusive goal, the stability that comes with robust rent regulation becomes critical for more and more families.
That’s why I continue to stand with my neighbors at #Portside in #JerseyCity in their struggle against #bigrealestate and 🧵

““They unanimously not just ruled in our favor but put on the record the filing requirements, they put the city on notice that now every tenant in the city can point to our ruling.” I really hope that tenants in other parts of the city are able to use this to get relief.
“To finally have a lawful outcome was shocking” said Kevin Weller of the Rent Leveling Board decision finding that Portside Towers is rent controlled.
