New York’s housing crisis is at a boiling point, while the landlord lobby uses its power and our rent money to weaken tenant protections, block Good Cause Eviction, and roll back rent stabilization.

But we’re fighting back. Tenants across New York are standing together to protect our homes, communities, and hard-won rights.

What we’re fighting for:

• $5B for NYCHA and $5B for Social Housing
• Statewide Good Cause Eviction
• Housing Access Voucher Program
• Statewide Right to Counsel
• Tenant Opportunity to Purchase Act

We won important protections and stopped the worst of the landlord rollbacks.

Why We Fight

Our fight against the RGB helps protect the rents, homes, and lives of over 2.5 million New Yorkers living in an estimated 1 million rent-stabilized apartments.

The RGB is a government oversight board appointed by the mayor that annually determines the allowable rent increases or decreases for rent-stabilized tenants. Therefore, by voicing our concerns and demands to the RGB, we can achieve real results for tenants all over New York City.

How YOU can join our fight?

The RGB begins the process by analyzing renter income and owner expenses throughout the boroughs of New York City each June.

As a rent-stabilized tenant, it is YOUR RIGHT to attend, listen, and provide a 2-minute testimony to the RGB members at these hearings, and to attend the public final vote held by the RGB.
