How We Win

We believe that winning the future of homes for all requires a mass movement of organized tenants taking on and winning big fights with their exploitative corporate landlords. That's why our main work is building the Rhode Island Tenants Union. Winning that future also requires strategic political work, and we run legislative and sometimes electoral campaigns.

In order to win our vision, we:

  • Elect champions for the people and pressure elected officials,

  • Organize neighbors working at the local level to build power across the state,

  • Mobilize people who have never thought of themselves as political organizers and empower ourselves with the knowledge, skills, and relationships to win change,

  • Enact a culture of strengthening solidarity across difference, developing new leaders, and building community power.
