Rent Strike May 1 if Landlords Don't Meet Our Demands
Corporate landlords and banks still think their profits are worth more than our lives, even in the midst of a pandemic. Let's show them how wrong they are.
Without OUR money, they are without power over OUR homes. That's why, on May 1, we will use our power to withhold our rent and mortgage payments unless the five largest corporate landlords — FirstKey Homes, Cerberus Capital Management, Equity Residential, Lincoln Property Company, and Greystar — meet our following, basic demands:
1. Forgive unpaid rents and waive mortgage interest and defer mortgage payments for the months of April, May and June.
2. Cease evictions of any renters and foreclosures on any homeowners during the full duration of the crisis — for at least six months.
3. Use your political power to call on public officials to support housing relief for the tens of millions of American workers who have lost their jobs.
We’ve let these companies take advantage of us year after year, crisis after crisis, but we have the collective power end their profiteering. Join us, take the #RentStrike Pledge: https://bit.ly/3clSo4E
