What kind of power? Union power!<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tacoma tenants know enforcing their rights, creating community, and shifting power starts at home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s why renters are forming democratic, member-driven unions throughout the city… and taking the fight right to the slumlords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get organized with Tacoma Tenant Organizing and Outreach today and help build the citywide Tacoma Tenants Union movement of tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, your building! Tomorrow, the city!<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Renters represent almost half of Tacoma\u2019s 220,000 residents, yet have limited voice in  our own homes, city politics or the local economy. We\u2019re here to change that \u2013building by building, block by block, portfolio by portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This starts with creating building-level, supermajority unions, like the recently-launched New York Apartments and Newcastle Apartments Tenant Unions, and several more launching this Spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But we must go further. We know that when organized, tenants will be a force to be reckoned with in Tacoma and throughout the region. That\u2019s why we\u2019re building portfolio-wide tenant unions and laying the foundations for a citywide tenant union.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our goal is to launch several supermajority unions in 2026, develop member leaders throughout the city, and use our power to win major contracts and concessions. All of this will lead up to a founding citywide tenant union convention.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Tacoma Tenant Organizing and Outreach (TTOO) is partnering with The Tacoma Tenants Union, Tacoma For All and Nexus Legal Counsel to support tenants throughout our community.
