You can't end homelessness without housing.
Portland's Mayor removed the expert leading us toward proven solutions (social housing = what works in Vienna).
The City Council voted unanimously for this work. Our community deserves better.

I voted HELL NO on a CR deal that betrays millions of people who rallied, organized, and voted to save health care for 20 million Americans. Giving into a bully does nothing to stop him. I’ll keep fighting against Trump’s authoritarianism and attempts to gut community resources.

Over the weekend, the Mayor started calling nonprofits warning them their funding would disappear if this passed. 🙃 Except… most of them don’t even get money from that sweeps budget.
Nice try though.

We basically have a split council and the left has to mobilize if we want to win on these crucial issues.
The reactionaries with show up foaming at the mouth and councilors on the fence have to see that there is the same or greater energy in favor of funding rent assistance.
Organize or lose.

I don’t think people understand how organized pro-sweep turnout will be to wednesdays council meeting.
Register for item 8 ASAP. If you can’t make it, testify in writing:

Indeed. The idea that @councilormorillo.bsky.social's amendment is a huge problem is just nutty in this context.
The idea that this vote hinges on whether people think sweeps are good or bad is so bizarre to me. If the Mayor and CA want to do sweeps, then wouldn’t finding the money to pay for it be the first step? They propose to blow through their Contingency because they don’t have the money.

Our amendment doesn’t cut those things.
Mayor Wilson could’ve called me to clarify and ask questions before blasting us in a newsletter, but of course he has to find a scapegoat when he doesn’t magically end homelessness on 12/1 by warehousing people.
Looking forward to clarifying this tomorrow.

The Impact Reduction Program also provides trash abatement, which is essential in maintaining clean, walkable sidewalks for all Portlanders. We shouldn‘t cut their budget.

Just talked with a professor from France who informed me that they just don’t do evictions in the winter where he’s from and that that’s extremely normal. It would be a BATTLE to get a policy like that in Portland.

Portland City Council will consider an amendment next week to redirect $4.3 million from the city program that sweeps homeless encampments. If passed, the budget adjustment will instead invest $2 million in rent and food assistance, and support for immigrants and refugees.

Holy shit McCarthyism
Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows.
Does this sound familiar?
Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."
