Austin City Council approved two ordinances to strengthen tenants' rights.
Thursday morning, the Austin Justice Coalition held a renters' rights rally.
"If I get evicted because I can't pay rent while I'm sick, I have no place to go and will end up on the streets," another public commenter said. "An organizer who is invited by a tenant at the property is allowed to be on the property," District 4 Council Member Chito Vela said. "By council today stepping up and supporting a pro-renters' agenda, we are showing and demonstrating to our community that we care about our renters and that we're here to offer protections for our renters," District 2 Council Member Vanessa Fuentes said.
