The significance of this story is not only the immigration angle, but the mechanism: housing eligibility itself. HUD’s proposed rule would require verification of citizenship or eligible status for all residents in covered assisted housing, which could fundamentally change how mixed-status households are treated.

🌍 [EN] ⚖️🏠 In recent years, the fight against 𝘃𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗱𝘀 has achieved important progress. European law, court rulings, and community organization are stopping evictions and abuses. Examples: first collective complaint in Lavapiés; residents of 17,000 homes in Madrid are mobilizing to prevent mass sales and demand public management.

The housing crisis is not a glitch. Fighting it takes a network. Here are the organizations building tenant power in Buffalo.
When facing eviction, code violations, or landlord harassment, the current system relies heavily on tenants feeling isolated. Property owners frequently bank on the fact that an individual renter might lack the resources or the knowledge to fight back alone. A highly effective way to counter that isolation is through organized, cross-community solidarity.
The Rising Tide Fellowship operates within a broader ecosystem of groups working to build working-class power in Western New York. Building a functional defense network means connecting legal aid, mutual aid, and direct action into a cohesive front.
Our digital headquarters serves as a directory to connect you directly with these mission-aligned organizations. While we do not maintain formal or official corporate partnerships with these entities, we consider them vital allies bound by a shared commitment to community sovereignty.
This directory includes legal resources like Neighborhood Legal Services, the Western New York Law Center, and HOME. It also links to on-the-ground organizing groups like the Queen City Workers Center, PUSH Buffalo, and Black Love Resists in the Rust (which is currently sunsetting its operations and not taking on new missions, but remains a highly respected part of our local organizing history).
If you are looking to get involved, or if you are currently facing a hostile property owner and want backup, connecting with the groups already doing the work on the ground is a great first step. You can find direct links to these local allies in our directory.

@GhostOnTheHalfShell Exactly. Victoria is currently running the "progressive" tax playbook that San Francisco's Proposition M (the "Empty Homes Tax") aimed for—but with more teeth.
Here is the breakdown:
1. The Vacancy Reality
While SF's version has faced legal hurdles and local pushback, Victoria’s Vacant Residential Land Tax (VRLT) is already live. As of January 1, 2026, it has expanded to the entire state. If a property is empty for 6+ months, the tax hits hard and grows every year:
Year 1: 1% of the property’s total value.
Year 2: 2%.
Year 3+: 3%.
On a $1M home, that’s a $30,000 yearly penalty just for keeping it empty.
2. Targeting "Land Banking"
Starting this year (2026), Victoria is also taxing unimproved land in Melbourne that’s been sitting undeveloped for 5 years. It stops investors from just holding dirt and waiting for a payday while people struggle to find homes.
3. The "Stagnation" SecretThe media calls Melbourne’s flat house prices a "weak market," but it’s likely the policy working. By lowering the land tax threshold to just $50,000, the state has made it expensive to hold multiple properties. Investors are selling off because the "holding costs" now outweigh the profit.
It’s a massive experiment in using tax to force houses back onto the market—and the silence from the mainstream press suggests the "investor class" is feeling the squeeze.

Governments are finally pushing back — another Aussie city is cracking down on Airbnb and short-term rentals, forcing investors to rethink the “easy money” model.
Property should be for homes, not profit-machines. These reforms show that some leaders are prioritising the long-term housing needs of people, not just the wealthy few who view homes as cash cows.#housingjustice #rentersrights #airbnbcrackdown #policychange #rentalcrisisaustralia #rentalcrisis #housingcrisis

Victoria is once again leading the way in putting people ahead of the wealthy few. From tomorrow renters in Victoria will benefit from stronger protections: a ban on no-fault evictions, a ban on rental bidding (so tenants don’t have to compete like auction bidders), longer notice periods for rent increases and property changes, and minimum standards for rental homes.
These reforms remind us that government can serve the many — not just the privileged minority who own property. I woild be proud to live in a state taking that message seriously. You won't be reading about this in the Murdoch controlled msm.#housingjustice #renterprotections #victoria #rentalcrisis #rentalcrisisaustralia

Sometimes, the little guys win.
A property developer tried to muscle out vulnerable residents in Sydney’s inner east — but the court sided with justice. The boarding house stays. The community holds.

We all know that homelessness itself is criminalized, especially following the passage of Boston's tent ban ordinance last fall and the Supreme Court's ruling in Grants Pass V. Johnson earlier this summer. Warm Up's Legal Working Group is trying to chip away at the effects of this. Read on for more about our Court Support Program, an update on our Bail Fund, and how YOU can get involved!

"Communities created by unhoused people can be places for revolutionary dreaming, rad mutual aid projects, and sites to mobilize political resistance to the criminalization of extreme poverty. Government-run encampments take away what can be empowering about living in an encampment by turning the encampment into a “service.” The institutionalization of encampments reinforces the carceral logic that unhoused people and poor people can only legally exist within a system that is designed to reform them, even if the only difference between being in the system and on the streets is whether it’s your tent or a tent issued by the city. Institutionalization also completely alienates the sense of community that characterizes most encampments on the streets; since the advent of contemporary homelessness in the early 80’s, people have banded together in community with friends and allies to protect themselves, their belongings, and each other. It is a natural form of survival and togetherness in lives that are way too often dangerous and incredibly isolated."

These outrageous acts of socioeconomic cleansing (see thread linked below) give the lie to all the mendacious claims that evictions of poor people’s encampments are about public health, safety, or “environmental impacts”. Even those that are exemplary models of minimizing those impacts are being evicted all over the country to appease landlords and upper-middle-income gentrifiers who have many times more detrimental effects on the local community and global ecology.
This is not about public safety, the environment, or even “quality of life”. It’s about maintaining extortionate housing prices and propping up the system of rentier capitalism by comprehensively criminalizing the mere act of existing anywhere, in any way whatsoever, without paying the banks and landlords their monthly pounds of flesh and engaging in the consumer economy at a level that the wealthy consider “respectable”.
There is simply no conceivable moral justification for this legalized neo-feudal protection racket, where if you don’t keep making skyrocketing extortion payments every month, the landlord / “property investor” class sends a band of sadistic psychopaths with guns to rob you of your belongings and displace you from your home by violent force.
This is happening practically everywhere and every day across the entire USA. And it’s not going to stop until people of conscience start organizing in large numbers to say, “No more! We won’t be forced to pay rent to live on the earth where we were born!” Every time these thugs show up for another round of evictions against the most marginalized people in this country, they need to start finding themselves faced with overwhelming resistance, including support for elements willing to engage in vigorous, forceful self-defense if necessary. That’s the only way we’re going to keep these crimes against humanity from continuing to accelerate.
This is, for me, on an equal footing with the climate and ecological emergency as the most urgent domestic problem in the US today, and it is inextricably intertwined with all the others. If we have no right to exist (and no, something we have to purchase is not a right - it’s a commodity), then none of our other rights count for a goddamn thing. This country’s unhoused people are on the front lines of one of the most crucial and urgent social justice struggles of our time, and need a hell of a lot more solidarity than they’re currently getting. Let’s all step up!

Real estate agents are rarely considered the victim. But when it comes to the behemoths of property listings in Australia, estate agents have faced price gouging to the tune of a 5000% price rise over the last 15 years for a 'premium' listing on the market-dominant platform. Without paying for that 'premium' service, properties tend to disappear from search results.
Since the behemoth in question is a subsidiary of (and substantially bankrolling) Australia's dominant media company (i.e. #Murdoch), with a market capitalisation greater than supermarket giant #Coles, here is yet another reason the political duopoly are reluctant to touch structural #TaxJustice issues such as #NegativeGearing or #CapitalGainsTax.

Mobile homes could be a climate solution, a new report argues. Mobile homes are more energy-efficient, affordable, and adaptable than conventional homes. They could help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, housing inequality, and disaster vulnerability.

I wrote this article about a rent strike that started in two Kansas City apartment complexes, and organizers are working to spread this campaign to buildings across multiple US states.
The purpose is not just to fix things at the building level; this ambitious campaign is strategically targeting buildings strikes in a way that aims to force the the hand of a federal regulator, the FHFA, to lock in tenant protections.

On the housing front, real estate speculators are targeting neighborhoods in Los Angeles post-natural disasters.

But there’s hope! A nonprofit just bought a burned lot to keep it in local hands, away from speculators.

Tomorrow I will be attending (and hopefully speaking at) a special city council meeting in my town to address the public’s concerns about the recent death (ahem, not accidental) of an unhoused neighbor, James Oakley, who was crushed to death by a backhoe in one of their encampment sweeps. I am bracing myself for the what-about-ism bullshit comments and arguments I will undoubtedly hear from some of the City’s residents. I don’t know what else to be said other than that everyone deserves to live under a roof. Period. Everyone. Yes everyone.
Wish me luck.

DL Moody, American evangelist, considers the Centurion from Matthew 8, who took care of his servant. Moody says this biblical example is in contrast to the modern idea that our responsibility to a worker ends with paying their wages.
Is this statism, or or simply acting on the notion that our workers are dear to us?
How can you act as if those who work for you, or supply you services, are dear to you?
