FOUR tenant unions in LA with the same management—Triumph Residential—just announced the formation of TRIUMPH TENANT COUNCIL and presented collective demands to management and press on Tuesday!
CCED and @LATenantsUnion are joining forces to support their organizing ✊

Triumph Tenant Council grievances include illegal fines, rent increases, violations of privacy, and lack of translated notices for non-English-speaking tenants.
Triumph refused to engage in good faith, re-affirming it WON’T translate notices while ignoring other demands ON FILM!

The Hillside Villa case represents one of the longest-running rent strikes in recent Los Angeles history, occurring amid a broader housing crisis that resulted in more than 75,000 people experiencing homelessness in LA County last year.

After a difficult, historic, hard-fought five-year rent strike, the tenants of @hillside_villa won an monumental victory. Their landlord is canceling over $700,000 of rental debt for 20 tenants, and no one is getting evicted.

When we fight, we win.
We didn't get eminent domain, but we got a deal that lets us stay in our homes.

One of the greatest tenant organizing victories in LA history—though not all demands were met, @hillside_villa’s 5 years-long rent strike, supported by @LATenantsUnion @ccedLA, not only prevented evictions, but also won years of affordability, with tons of rent debt erased.

If you think you may come in contact with toxic air like tear gas we do recommend a P100 respirator with proper filters & goggles but if an N95 is all you have access to, wear one.

Look at the violence & terror brought on our community by LAPD pigs.
Bootlickers are quick to blame protestors but it is the state who has a monopoly on violence. It is this fascist empire who makes our resistance necessary as they kidnap our neighbors off the street.

There are truly *hundreds* of LAPD pigs still clogging the streets of Little Tokyo like the vile cancer that they are.
This is the police state in full effect.

The LAPD showing once again that it is nothing but a violent occupying force in Little Tokyo.
ICE OUT OF LA. FUCK THE LAPD.

After disrupting the LA County Board of Supervisors meeting in January and then pressuring them for nearly a month, today WE WON EVICTION PROTECTIONS for all tenants in LA County who were economically impacted by the fires!

The evictions motion, revised by Horvath, has passed with four votes in favor, and one abstention from Barger.
