Tenants United Santa Ana

The stock market may be fine, we may be technically reopened, but people in low-wage jobs which are disproportionately people of color are not back yet, said Madeline Howard, senior attorney for the Western Center on Law and Poverty." https://abcnews.go.com//california-weighs-extending-evicti

The following introductory video presents the key takeaways of opportunity zones and how they affect Santa Ana. The opportunity zones program is a direct product from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017) a federal policy from the Trump era. It directs state governs to select low-income census tracts perceived to benefits from more investment. This allows corporate investors and landlords to receive major scaling tax incentives while profiting off of these communities. It’s time that we demand the city council of Santa Ana do what’s right by adopting the City of Santa Ana Community Preservation, Rent Stabilization, Tenants’ Rights Act to secure permanent tenant protections that would stabilize rents for apartment/multi-family units built before 1995 and just cause eviction protections for all Santa Ana renters!

The amount of documentation required by the federal and state government has resulted in us providing relief at an extremely low pace, said Fresno City Councilmember Miguel Arias. The program also requires that we have landlord participation and agreement. It’s almost like filling out a mortgage application. As relief trickles out, evictions have continued because of legal loopholes and varying interpretations of what the federal moratorium means. Even if tenants prove they cannot pay rent due to COVID-19, they can be evicted for other reasons, such as having too many people living on the property or failing to maintain the yard."

Corporate landlords in LA, the Bay, and across the country are poised to exploit the COVID-19 recession and expand their control over housing in working-class communities of color unless we rise up and fight for #CommunityControl of land and housing.

"Over the course of my reporting, I saw the tenants reimagine and then reinvent what stable, affordable housing could look like in their community. I saw them fight, and I saw them win [..] There was a time when we were just neighbors, not really talking to each other. Now, we’re a family. [Said Chloe Jackson] The following evening, around dusk, tenants gathered outside the Corcoran Five to remove Frenz’s signs from their homes" WHEN WE FIGHT, WE WIN!
