MENLO PARK: Low-income tenants living near Facebook's campus are speaking out, including to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, to help stop their landlords from displacing them from their homes. 

A group of tenants living in four buildings in Menlo Park are pleading to the media and on Facebook to stop a huge rent increase which will force families out of their long-time residences. Sandra Zamora, a member of the Redwood Landing Tenant Union, penned a letter on her Facebook profile to Zuckerberg saying Facebook's campus expansion has “extremely affected” their current predicament.
