Apple Bus Block
December 20, 2013
At 8:30am on Friday December 20, 2013, Heart of the City, Our Mission No Eviction and a collection of housing rights activists and displaced residents joined together in stopping a tech bus on its way to Silicon Valley.
We are doing this because:
We demand:
Renters are still the majority. We will fight for our city!
Get off the bus, join us!

We are doing this because:
- San Francisco is choosing the new tech class over longterm residents.
- For every tech bus that rolls through the streets, there is an evicted family rolling their luggage out of the city.
- Evictions are up 170% percent over the last year alone.
- Homelessness is skyrocketing as tech moves in.
- We are not against tech; we are against displacement.
We demand:
- A moratorium on all no-fault evictions.
- Preservation of rent-controlled housing.
- Preservation of the heart of the city.
- A city that cares for its elders, artists, families, and culture.
- A city where all residents are valued and respected.
- Investment in all people and businesses, not just tech.
Renters are still the majority. We will fight for our city!
Get off the bus, join us!
