What is the all-chicago tenant alliance?

The All-Chicago Tenant Alliance (ACTA) is a socialist organization of Chicago tenants. The time is right for workers and tenants across Chicago to stand together and fight for control over our housing and our lives.

In the neighborhoods, control means:

• Housing Control – Housing out of the hands of landlords and into the hands of the workers
• No Poverty Profiteering – No more politicians or capitalists getting rich off of people’s exploitation
• Neighborhood Self-Determination – The people determine the future of our own neighborhoods—not corporations, out-of-state investors, or greedy slumlords

To win this we have built a dedicated, militant group of organizers prepared to bring the fight to your landlord. 

What does ACTA do?

If you’re looking to address problems in your building, members of ACTA will come to you and help put together a Tenant Union, an organization that can demand more from the landlord and back it up! Over the last two years this strategy has been proven. ACTA unions have carried out protests and rent strikes against arrogant slumlords with great success.

As landlords and capitalists intensify their exploitation in our city and around the world, working people will be the first to suffer. Be a part of the movement that meets these challenges head on.
