We are building a movement for the working class of Travis County to make this county affordable for the people that make it run instead of keeping housing out of reach to inflate property values.

Tenants in Acacia Cliffs are being displaced off the backs of greedy landlords converting to luxury apartments.
The Housing Authority of Travis County needs to step up and purchase Acacia Cliffs to stop this conversion and put it into community control.
