The killing of Black and Brown youth is a component of the heartless denial of humanity at the core of capitalism. We can organize and take control of the police in our communities and end the killings now. read the full article here: cpusa.org/article/we-c...

Working people are tired of billionaires and giant corporations getting even richer while we’re fighting for scraps.

Workers are hungry to take back their power, and they’re turning to the labor movement to fight back and win. ✊

WHY RENT STRIKE?
(PART 1)
ICE OUT
We can create an economic crisis shows that ICE is bad for the Twin Cities and ICE is bad for the economy.
EVICTION MORATORIUM
No evictions under occupation. This is the easiest action the Governor can take to care for Minnesotans.
RENT RELIEF
The legislature should open a so0 million rent reliet fund. It should come with strong tenant protections.
SOLIDARITY
If thousands of us who can pay our rent decided not to pay, we create a buffer around those who cannot pay, mucking up eviction courts and landlords' financials.

WHY RENT STRIKE?
(PART 2)
ECONOMIC DISRUPTION
The rent is the biggest bill for most tenants, a major challenge in a moment of crisis, but also an opportunity for a different kind of leverage. Compared to other forms of economic disruption, like time-limited or corporation-specific boycotts, or calling out from a day of work, a rent strike could pose an unwieldy, unpredictable economic problem for capital, which could force a political response.

HOW WOULD A CITIES-WIDE
RENT STRIKE WORK?
This only works if it is real. The strike cannot be just vibes-based, or exist only on social media. We are committed to organizing a real base of people who are actually ready to withhold rent. tests (hich measure participation be tore ture would go on strike. Right now we are in the first phase, which is the strike drive. During this phase we assess our power. If we reach at least 10,000 commitments and we pass our other tests, we will call for strike authorization, which would occur in a meeting of Twin Cities Tenants on February 28.
Authorization is the last chance for our targets to meet our demands. If we are ready, and if they fail to do so, we strike on March 1.
