Did you know? In New Jersey, tenants have the legal right to withhold rent โ€” but only if it's done the right way.

Most people don't know this. And that's exactly what landlords count on.

At our April 21st Housing Justice Action Team Know Your Rights event, residents learned that rent withholding โ€” when done correctly โ€” isn't just allowed, it's one of the most powerful tools tenants have to hold landlords accountable for unsafe conditions and unaddressed repairs.

Knowledge is power. And our community is getting both. Here's what else residents walked away knowing ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿ”‘ Practical strategies to prevent eviction before it starts
๐Ÿ  How to document and address unsafe or unhealthy living conditions
โš–๏ธ How to communicate effectively during court proceedings
๐Ÿ“‹ Their full rights and responsibilities as tenants under NJ law

This is community in action. Thank you to every resident, advocate, and legal partner who made this night possible.

๐Ÿ“… Next up: Join us Wednesday, May 28th for our Development Watch Action Team meeting. Stay tuned for details.

Your rent. Your roads. Your neighborhood. All of it runs through local government, and the people making those calls were put there by voters.

The Newark Municipal Election is TOMORROW. If you've ever wondered why something in your community isn't getting fixed, this one is for you. We're breaking down who does what, who holds the power, and why showing up at the polls actually changes things.
