Living in a manufactured home community and wondering how to combat skyrocketing rents and unfair housing practices? Get ready to uncover the critical insights shared by Bill Bateman, Co-President and Communications Director of the Oregon State Tenants Association (OSTA), as we delve into the pressing issues facing residents of manufactured or floating home communities in Oregon.

Join the upcoming Zoom sessions, scheduled for September 9th through 12th, which offer a vital platform for seniors to share their experiences and support new legislation spearheaded by Representative Pam Marsh. These sessions will address three main areas of concern: rent hikes outpacing Social Security benefits, complicated rent resets that hinder unit sales, and arbitrary cosmetic improvements required before selling. We also emphasize the importance of forming tenant associations to amplify collective power and fight back against community intimidation and bullying.

Inspired by Stephen Gabriel's powerful lyrics, addressing Stephen Biko, we explore igniting positive change through collective action. Learn how to become an unstoppable force for good in addressing social issues with passion and determination. Stay informed and engaged with our Zoom updates, email interactions, and by subscribing and sharing our podcast. Join us Monday at 11 o'clock for the latest updates and discussions. Let's work together to drive legislative change and ensure a fairer housing market. Until next time, stay safe, spread the word, and let's be the fire that can't be extinguished.
