Last weekend members from all of our 6 chapters, along with our organizing partners, headed to Harrisburg to demand state legislators respond to the affordability crisis by taxing billionaires and big tech corporations. We joined hundreds of other Pennsylvanians to march through the halls of the Capitol and meet with state representatives.

Members from Erie had a successful meeting with their state rep, Bob Merski. After hearing Erie residents’ stories about struggling through the affordability crisis, Merski ended up signing on to the bills and joining us at the rally.

It’s time for the PA legislature to tax billionaires and big tech corporations so that poor and working families don’t lose their housing!

Shoutout to our coalition partners:

Last Wednesday, we packed the Erie City Council meeting to share our own experiences navigating the affordability crisis and to call for solutions from our leaders. Over 40 people held the line during the marathon council meeting, with many waiting until after 10:00 PM (on a school/work night!) to ensure our voices were heard.

In recent days, our compañero Carlos Mora took part in a 130-mile march from Pittsburgh to the Moshannon Valley detention center.

It was a peaceful action to bring attention to the reality many immigrant families face—separation, detention, and harsh conditions. The march ended with a vigil in support of those detained.

As an organization, we remain committed to dignity, rights, and justice for our community.

Erie County United organizer Carlos Mora was recently part of a 130-mile march from PIttsburgh to an ICE facility in Clearfield County. See link below ⬇️
