Renters represent almost half of Tacoma\u2019s 220,000 residents, yet have limited voice in our own homes, city politics, or the local economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re here to change that.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This work starts with creating building-level, supermajority unions, like the recently launched Hoover Portfolio (New York, Newcastle and North Slope) Tenant Unions, and the McIlvaine Tenant Union<\/strong>.<\/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. <\/strong><\/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.<\/strong> All of this will lead up to a founding citywide tenant union convention. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
