Would this be legal in the U.S.?
Yes it is! Tenant unions are actually steadily gaining steam in the US. When I'm done with my union campaign, I'm going to start organizing my apartment
Excellent! I'm a homeowner, but I wish all of the renters in this country a way to get relief and this sounds like a good start!
Interesting. You're giving me ideas! Ideas that I don't know if I have the energy and resources to act on, but something to think about and maybe talk to other neighbors about. We have no rent increase protections or really many tenent rights at all here in Oklahoma and the prices are getting ridiculous..and these are supposed to be low income apartments. Bah.
Can't se why it wouldn't be other than blatant corruption.
That would be why, yes.
It is legal though. They legally cannot stop unionization.
Even the US president made a big speech about being pro-union last week and that it's illegal to stop organizing them.
