Save Rent Control! A printable "No on Prop. 98" letter to renters

by A Concerned Renter
Many folks don't know about the upcoming June 3, 2008 statewide election, when California voters may be fooled into repealing rent control, thinking they are voting on an initiative for eminent domain reform. Landlords have intentionally disguised Prop. 98 and submitted it for a low-turnout election. It's important to get the word out to as many folks as possible, so here you'll find a printable "No on Prop. 98" letter to renters.

If you care about both renters and homeowners, as well as the environment, waters supplies, seniors, and the disabled, then mark your calendar for the June 3, 2008 election. We urge you to vote "No" on Prop. 98 (disguised as "Eminent Domain Reform") and "Yes" on Prop. 99 (which cancels Prop. 98 if it receives one more vote).

Here is a printable letter about Prop. 98 that you can use to distribute to your neighbors. Print as many copies as you'd like and slip them under your neighbors' doors. All it takes is for one person per building to print enough letters for all the units in their building, and if enough people do this, it'd be an easy and effective way to get the word out across the city (and state).

Attached are two versions of the letter -- one for San Francisco specifically and one for California in general -- each in two file formats (both Word Doc and PDF formats).
