COME VOTE FOR YOUR LANDLORD!
On Wednesday Tuesday, January 17 23, 2007, "Tenants United Against Harassment" will be holding a special forum, described as a "citywide convention to select New York's most abusive landlord."
According to a flyer we received, New York tenants are eligible to nominate landlords "who are using illegal methods to push tenants out," with the event's purpose being to "bring attention to the crisis of harassment, and support new legislation in the City Council that will give tenants a new tool to fight back."
The event is being held on:
Wednesday Tuesday, January 17 23, 2007
11:00 AM -- 1:00 PM
Judson Memorial Church
55 Washington Square South (NYU area), Manhattan
