Today the Board strengthened protections for tenants in unincorporated areas. We showed up to demand county-wide protections, and in response Lindsey Horvath said she will introduce a motion, to be voted on next week, to raise the evictable rent debt threshold to 3 months' FMR for the entire county.

🚨 Support immigrants who have lost work & are facing eviction! On Tuesday the LA County Board of Supervisors will vote on whether to increase the amount a tenant has to be behind on rent before a landlord can evict them. We demand county-wide protections! Toolkit here: bit.ly/evictice88cities

What does it take to be the only L.A. landlord criminally charged under the city’s Tenant Anti-Harassment Ordinance?

From Echo Park Tenants Union, 10 people taken today in Echo Park/Silver Lake. Some were gardners, painters, and workers. All of them my neighbors.

On Wednesday, Renee Macklin Good was fatally shot by a federal ICE agent. Becca Good, her wife, shared the following statement with MPR News.

Tonight, I was one of more than 200 people who gathered on Chicago’s North Side to mourn Renee Nicole Good. Several people asked me to publish my remarks from the vigil, so I’m sharing them here.

ICE murdered someone in cold blood today. 6pm Placita Olvera

"We had never operated ICE watch patrols, but we were able to do it. And here’s the great thing: you don’t have to do it alone. You don’t have to figure out all of this from scratch, because we’re here to support you.” My latest for the @us.theguardian.com: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

"This is New York’s first portfolio-wide union in recent memory, and surely the first to be built at such dizzying scale: In a matter of months, 40 Pinnacle buildings across 3 boroughs have formed tenant associations and joined the union to coordinate their demands." newrepublic.com/article/2042...

LA rent relief is coming. But as immigration raids continue, it might not close the gap. Tenant organizers are still pressuring County leadership to pass an eviction moratorium. lapublicpress.org/2025/12/la-r...

After 40 years of struggle, Brazil’s Landless Workers’ Movement is now at nearly two million members and taking center stage in the fight for democracy and equality. It’s done that by flying the most unlikely militant banner of all: organic food.

NO WAR ON VENEZUELA SATURDAY - 2PM PERSHING SQUARE

LAPD can continue to use military weapons, foam bullets and tear gas after City Council vote. The LA City Council voted 8-4 to let LAPD keep using foam bullets and tear gas despite documented misuse during this summer’s anti-ICE protests and over $50M in civil rights violation payouts last year.

Today we returned to the Board of Supervisors with members of the EVICT ICE NOT US (evicticenotus.org) coalition to demand eviction protections in the wake of the financial devastation of the ICE raids.

In Sept the County passed a motion to consider an eviction moratorium, in Oct they declared a state of emergency giving them the authority to implement one... since then they've dragged their feet. Join us TUESDAY to demand they act! 500 W Temple 8:30am evicticenotus.org

It's hard to express what it meant to watch Maurice, Natalia, Celeste, and Rhea tell their stories—in their own voices—this morning. The segment revealed a brutal reality: homelessness at this scale isn't about personal failure. It's the result of policy choices and systems built to exploit people.

Housing organizers warn against putting people out “as long as I.C.E. is in our city.” https://bit.ly/4oGuo1C

Today LA City Council voted to strengthen the LA rent stabilization law, so that increases will range from 1-4% instead of the current rule, 3-8%. This will affect hundreds of thousands of households. Congrats & thank you to everyone who fought so hard to win this! laist.com/news/housing...

After DHS agents descended upon a Home Depot in Los Angeles, @latenantsunion.bsky.social spent the summer experimenting. @city.bsky.social reports on how organizers built a long-term protective presence for Issue No. 8 hammerandhope.org/article/los-...

It's been 5 months since the federal siege of LA began. In recent weeks, raids have not been as widely reported as they were over the summer. Community defense teams witnessed a dramatic uptick in kidnappings in Ktown, Pico-Union, MacArthur Park, Mid City, & Downtown LA @lataco.bsky.social

He said there was no room to sleep. People sat up, slept on the floor, standing up. He saw many pregnant women there too. The conditions were unbearable. His wife is horrified by his account.

Her husband was at Broadview one month and she was never able to talk to him. Not until he was already in Mexico. He had been in Chicago for 20 years. Her husband shared that the numbers of people there were astounding. It just makes me think how many people that are not counted/just disappeared.

Her husband told her that detainees at Broadview had to get up at 5am to get in line for one bathroom. He often peed himself. One time he had to wait until 2pm to use the bathroom. You could only use the bathroom once a day. He said the agents would beat you if you used the bathroom on yourself.

He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

New on Knock: with immigrant communities still reeling from the fascist raids, the Los Angeles Tenants Union is calling on the Board of Supervisors to pass an eviction moratorium to protect their homes. The proposal will be further discussed at the October 7 BoS meeting knock-la.com/latu-urges-b...

We just built a NEW tech tool that *any current or former tenant* in the entire country can use for free — it will generate a legal letter for you that reports to collections agencies, credit bureaus and regulatory agencies. Go to reportmylandlord.org to fight back.

ICE agents abducted Chicago day laborer Willian Gimenez—who is suing off-duty cops for violence at Home Depot. Advocates say his arrest is retaliation for speaking out.

It's been another morning of terror in Chicagoland. ICE is snatching people across burbs + city. More cars abandoned on the side of the road, & more day laborers disappeared. A van rolls into the Broadview "processing facility." After gates close, agents move 3 men in shackles into the building.

EVICTION MORATORIUM NOW! The County Board of Supervisors voted 4-0 on a motion to explore eviction moratorium options today. They put it on the agenda last minute, after we packed the room at their meeting on rent relief last week to instead demand an eviction moratorium! laist.com/news/housing...

Last week the LA County Board of Supervisors was set to discuss rent relief - instead we filled the room with people demanding an eviction moratorium. They will vote on exploring options tomorrow.

Tomorrow the @lacountybos.bsky.social will vote on "exploring options for an eviction moratorium" across all of LA County in response to the economic crisis caused by the ICE raids. This motion was put on the agenda after we filled the meeting on Wednesday to tell them rent relief isn't enough.

Los Angeles teachers are patrolling the streets, linking w immigration/ tenants’ advocates, and repurposing lockdown policies designed to protect students from active shooters or wildfires — all to protect them from ICE @jessicaschulberg.bsky.social and I report www.huffpost.com/entry/los-an...

After 3 months on RUBS strike - paying rent but not crazy utility bills - the Virgil Square Tenants Association in Koreatown has gotten more than $20,000 returned to tenants for what their landlord Equity Residential says were "higher-than-expected" costs over 18 months! BANRUBS.ORG

We are collecting funds to support the families of the people who were kidnapped at the Home Depot on Wilshire yesterday in flagrant violation of the TRO. Venmo @ latenants (under 'businesses') with the tag 'MP.' Thank you.
