If you were a lawyer or paralegal, I'd love to show you.
It's all within the lease but they're "ignoring it" and trying to get people to sign a new agreement that signs away all the rights. They tried to gaslight me by email saying that it was a separate agreement (insistently) until I showed them the terms on my lease. Then they just don't reply to any questions I have about the lease and keep telling me to sign the new one.
Get yourself a paralegal/lawyer if you don't already have one. Since a number of you are in a similar position you should be able to share counsel.
There are any number of legal clinics that may be willing to provide counsel as well.
I'm not sure the Tenant Defense Fund would assist here, but they might, and are worth a try.
