Help call rent control voters
The MA Supreme Judicial Court barred rent control from going forward to the November ballot, but the legislature still has time to pass protections against endless rent increases. Sign up here to call constituents in target legislative districts and ask them to call their state rep and senator to demand rent control now! Script provided, no experience needed.
Rent control: the fight continues!
The corporate real estate lobby relied on a lawsuit and a questionable court decision to keep rent control off the 2026 ballot. But the fight is NOT over -- the campaign has built power and showed that people across the state want rent control. We will find a way to win! More details:
