GET UPDATES FROM UTA

Leave this field empty if you're human:

Yesterday, tenants at The Knick launched the first

Yesterday, tenants at The Knick launched the first chapter of the Stratus Tenant Union! Tenants organized in response to pest infestations, high rents and poor conditions, inadequate maintenance and management, poor bookkeeping, and union busting by Stratus Property Management (FKA Redburn Property Management). STU has more unions coming, so keep an eye out! Photo credit to @jaquellchandlerphoto

Today the Hippie Hotel Tenant Union launched, repr

Today the Hippie Hotel Tenant Union launched, representing more than 70% of the residents at the Willett! Tenants spoke about roach infestations, bats in their apartment, unresponsive and inadequate management, and general safety and security needs - that ain't right! Today, HHTU sent their demand letter to Cole Realty Group to sit down with the tenant union and negotiate in good faith. Shout out to @amromero109 for coming and standing with the tenants! And thanks @fotosbytrey for the amazing pics ❤️

Last night the Thurlow Terrace Tenant Union called

Last night the Thurlow Terrace Tenant Union called on the Common Council to hold their slumlord accountable and pass a resolution in support of the Rent Emergency Stabilization for Tenants Act! The Council was very receptive, promising action and passing the resolution for rent stabilization 14-0. Shout out to Drake Manor / Idlewild Terrace Tenant Union for coming and standing in solidarity with TTTU! Let's get the REST Act passed and hold these bad landlords to account! @mayordorceyapplyrs @patfahy46 @amromero109 @andreastewartcousins @cheastie

We were at the Capital Tuesday with the Right to C

We were at the Capital Tuesday with the Right to Counsel Coalition fighting for Clean Hands Eviction, the Winter Eviction Moratorium, and of course Right to Counsel! All of these bills would work together to drastically reduce the number of evictions we see every year in NYS 😡🏠❤️

Shout out to Honest Weight Food Co-Op for the roun

Shout out to Honest Weight Food Co-Op for the round-up they did in January this year to raise funds for UTA & Family Promise of the Capital Region. The $2,255 raised for UTA will all go toward our emergency rental assistance program to prevent low-income tenants from evictions & displacement <3

Today, seniors at from the Thurlow Terrace Tenant

Today, seniors at from the Thurlow Terrace Tenant Union stood outside "Thurlow Terror" and protested in the rain to bring attention to the poor conditions at their building, including pests, lack of security, and other conditions and safety issues. Coincidentally, the management office decided to change the weekly grocery store bus trip to the same time as the protest, but that didn't stop these leaders from making their voices heard! Thank you AM Gabriella Romero for sending a rep. and News10 for covering the action! Shout out to @fotosbytrey for the sick pics ❤️

Solid day at the Capitol advocating for the Housin

Solid day at the Capitol advocating for the Housing Access Voucher Program and Rent Emergency Stabilization for Tenants Act with Housing Justice For All ❤️💛

UTA was at the Washington Park International Worke

UTA was at the Washington Park International Workers Day / May Day celebration on Friday talking tenant power and tenants rights ❤️ shout out to all the organizers that made the event possible and exceptional :)

UTA's at the Capitol with Housing Justice For All

UTA's at the Capitol with Housing Justice For All today talking about the Rent Emergency Stabilization for Tenants (REST) Act! REST would make it easier for upstate & Long Island to opt in to rent stabilization, expand the protection to more tenants, and modernize the year-built requirement. REST is an essential tool to address the housing crisis this year 💕

Today the Drake Manor / Idlewild Terrace Tenant Un

Today the Drake Manor / Idlewild Terrace Tenant Union officially launched and delivered their 21 demands to management, including repairs and pest remediation, better conditions, reliable elevators, safety and security measures, and better accessibility. The tenant union consists of two different buildings that provide affordable housing to low-income seniors; 63% of the tenants have joined the union! Many thanks to @amromero109 @samfein518 and Council Member Mark Robinson for standing with the DM/IT-TU today! And thanks @fotosbytrey for capturing the launch!
