⚡ Action: We need a massive turnout! RSVP early so we can prep materials and launch teams efficiently.

We are in the final stretch to qualify the SAFE Homes for All Initiative for the November ballot. All signatures must be turned in by our June 14th Annual Convention, and every single shift counts.

The good news is that our momentum has picked up this week! Thanks to an incredible push by our volunteers, we have officially cleared 5,100+ signatures.
But here is the reality check: we still need 2,900 more signatures to safely clear the ballot line and to hold corporate slumlords accountable. We are within striking distance, but we need a massive surge of volunteers out on the doors over these final few weeks to pull this off.
There are our shifts everyday, but our biggest moment in this drive will be Sunday.

If you can’t make it Sunday, we have canvassing shifts running every single day of the week. Head to the link in our bio to claim a shift, or sign up to become a monthly member to help fund the final sprint!

“We’re not scofflaws.” That’s what Mercer Island millionaire landlord Steven Arterberry told The News Tribune today. But the tenants at his Westside Estates tell a completely different story.

The reality? This landlord’s entire business model is built on cutting corners and breaking the law to enrich himself at the expense of Tacoma’s lowest-income residents, seniors, and neighbors with disabilities.
The investigation exposes horrific conditions:

❌ Severe, unaddressed black mold and repeated flooding that is making tenants and their pets sick.
❌ Illegal 13.1% rent hikes slammed on low-income tenants and refusal to pay relocation assistance required by law.
❌ Gross negligence, like telling a 66-year-old tenant to “wedge a stick” in her broken window to stop break-ins instead of fixing it.

Worse yet, tenants bitterly complain about a systematic pattern of retaliation—including repeated threats of eviction—whenever they try to stand up for their legal rights. The full article is linked in the comments.

This is why tenants are demanding SAFE Homes for All. It’s why we’re calling on City Council to close the “Westside loophole” immediately. In December, Council allowed a rule change that lets non-profit landlords and for-profit deed-restricted landlords strip tenants of their legal rights by bringing on a nominal, fake non-profit “managing partner” on paper. Tenants have never even heard of the California non-profit listed on Westside’s paperwork. It’s a corporate shell game to strip away tenant protections.

HOW WE FIGHT BACK: We have just over 3 weeks left to qualify the SAFE Homes for All initiative for the November ballot. We have 4,500 signatures, but we need 3,500 more by June 14th to win the real, independent city enforcement that will hold predatory landlords like Arterberry accountable.

We are so grateful for our coalition partners that have endorsed the SAFE Homes for All initiative thus far 🫶They have participated in canvassing shifts, spoken at our events, and have been key partners to increase awareness of the initiative. They will be key in getting us the final 4,000 signatures before June 15. We look forward to all that’s to come with them on board, and we welcome any other partners that value tenant rights and class power as we do.

Join our coalition! We ask all community organizations, unions, and leaders within faith, labor, or community groups, who support tenant rights to formally endorse SAFE Homes for All 🔗 Go to the link below for more info.

Tacoma, we have 4 weeks left. Here is where we stand. 🗳️👇Click the link in our bio to RSVP for the Mega Canvass!

📅 THE MEGA CANVASS: SPRINT TO THE BALLOT
    •    When: Sunday, May 31st at 12:00 PM
    •    Where: Lincoln Park (801 S 37th St)
    •    Action: We need a massive turnout. RSVP early so we can prep materials and launch teams efficiently!

The corporate landlord lobby is organized and well-funded, but organized people beat organized money when we show up together. Let’s finish this fight and hand in those 8,000 signatures by our June 14th Annual Convention!

The clock is ticking to qualify the SAFE Homes for All initiative for the November ballot.
We have some incredible news, but we also need a serious reality check.

📊 THE GOOD NEWS: Thanks to your massive effort on the doors, we have officially cleared 4,400+ signatures! Even better, our data entry team just confirmed an outstanding 82% validity rate against the Tacoma voter files—much higher than expected. Because of this high validity, we are adjusting our final target from 9,000 down to 8,000 signatures to safely clear the finish line!

🚨 THE BAD NEWS: We still have nearly 4,000 signatures to go, and we’ve fallen behind on our weekly volunteer targets. We’ve been averaging about 30 shifts a week, but to pull this off, we need an immediate surge of people power:

    •    End of May Goal: 50 shifts per week
    •    June 2-Week Sprint: 100 shifts per week
We need to scale up fast, and it starts with our next massive field milestone.

🗣️Tomorrow!! Join us for our all-volunteers meeting for some important campaign updates. We are in the final 4️⃣ WEEKS to get SAFE Homes for All on the ballot this November! RSVP in the link below 🔗
