Tenants Corvallis
We are a union of tenants living in the Willamette Valley who recognize that housing is a human right and that rent in our area is too “dam” high.
We are tenants fighting for tenants!
Renting is a system inherently stacked against renters. Tenants have few limited protections under current laws, and landlords can often ignore them with impunity because we lack the time and resources to dispute. Together, we can fight for our right to housing for ourselves, our families, and our neighbors.
This is BIGGER than just your town!
Here are resources & news to show you.
