Jan. 23, 2026 will be remembered as the beginning of the end for the ICE regime grasping the throat of the US working class. A coalition of unions - including our sister local CWA 7250 - in collaboration with community groups, has called for a general strike of no working, no shopping, & no school.

I just found two relics that have just been collecting dust next to my desk in the corner of the office.
The first is a resolution creating the Oregon and Washington Typographical Society from the Journeymen Printers Convention in 1853.

The CEI Hub, a six mile stretch of fuel storage tanks between the Willamette River and Forest Park stores 90% of Oregon's liquid fuels.
Everyone who works in or near this geography is at risk of the impacts of a world-historic industrial disaster.
We, as workers, can prevent this future.

This November I began my new job as @cwa7901.bsky.social new union organizer.
I am also their only staff, so no staff union drama 😉
I’ll be leading Organizing (internal/external), as well as helping with their political work, and building up an infrastructure!

On weds night, after the crowd spent hours saying Angelita was uniquely pro-ICE (???) clr. Koyama lane highlighted that Mitch (a white guy) co-sponsored the reso. The crowd then began bullying Koyama lane
It’s also not lost on me these same folks are praising my male colleague for clarifying the permit process for the ICE building while they’ve raked me through the coals for explaining it.
Genuinely hilarious.

A better future was within reach and it’s getting rat fucked out from under us by our scarecrow freak goblin mayor
Portland Housing Director Helmi Hisserich has resigned after being "asked to step down without notice that my work was unsatisfactory.”
Her resignation letter, shared with OPB, points to a divide between how the city addresses its housing and homelessness crises.
