A Movement for Tenant Power
HouseUS
Tenants across the country are organizing local, state, and national campaigns to win better conditions in their homes and stop egregious rent hikes. In April 2024, tenants won a national 10% limit to rent increases in rental properties financed with federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), limiting rent increases for over a million low-income tenants.
Following personal stories over a year, we documented local tenants fighting for their homes both locally and nationally. HouseUSÂ supports tenant organizing and tenant power as a pathway towards achieving safe, accessible, and permanently affordable homes for all.
