A Rent Strike is Like Looting
This is what happens when people try to bargain with people who have bad faith. The eviction ban was always about grabbing power. It has now encouraged people to actively not pay rent to make a point. You can check out a new website encouraging people to not pay rent but you can also read two sample letters below. Please, if you get letters like this please let me know immediately (roger@seattleforgrowth.org). We’re asking local elected officials to repudiate this effort. This doesn’t help anyone and is like looting. It should be stopped. And if you support our work, please make a contribution now (follow this link). We’re working to stop this from getting worse. Thank you.
