PROTEST HIGHER RENTS!
The Rent Guidelines Board (RGB) holds its
Preliminary Vote on rent increases on
Monday, May 1, 2012 at 5:30 PM at Cooper Union
The RGB
has voted for unaffordable rent increases for NYC’s 99% despite reports that most landlords (the 1%) are doing quite well. Do you struggle to get basic repairs? Is
your landlord deregulating apartments to charge “market” rents? Demand an end to unfair rent hikes.
