A renter doesn't generally hold much sway with a landlord or management company, but when tenants organize, their power can be formidable. Case in point: Two renters in a southern city organized a tenant union for the purpose of expelling a property management company with a history of mistreating its tenants. They achieved their goal when residents en masse attended a city council committee hearing, told stories of the company's egregious behavior, and pushed for termination of the city's contract with the company.
