Tenant Unionization Canvass
Advertisement
Thanks to the work of BTU and our allies like UAW 4811, most Berkeley tenants now have a legally-enforceable right to unionize their building and collectively bargain with their landlord. Join us July 12 for a South Berkeley canvass to let tenants know about their rights under the new law and help unionize their buildings with BTU.
We'll meet at the Cedar Rose Park (1300 Rose St) beginning at 10am to train volunteers and distribute supplies. Make sure to bring comfortable shoes, a water bottle, and a charged phone.
You can RSVP at https://www.eastbaydsa.org/events/3679/2025-07-12-berkeley-tenant-right-to-organize-canvass/.

The Berkeley Tenants Union (BTU) is dedicated to defending and advancing the rights of Berkeley renters through grassroots organizing, outreach, and policy advocacy. We believe housing is a human right and rent stabilization is Berkeleyβs most effective affordable housing program. We will empower and educate tenants to preserve their right to stable, quality housing, because Berkeley is a better place to live when people from all walks of life can afford to make Berkeley their home.
Our goals include:
β’ Supporting a contact person or tenant organizer in every rental building in the city
β’ Creating a force of tenants with hundreds of due paying members
β’ Changing policy to benefit tenants
β’ Organizing tenants to protect them from threats, intimidation, and bribes that lead to the loss of our homes
β’ Empowering tenants through tenants rights education and advocacy training
The Berkeley Tenants Union is volunteer-led and membership-supported. We are only as strong as our members.
