Happy Veteran's Day!

SRI marched in the Linn Co. Veteran's Day parade, alongside Benton Co. Indivisible, today in Albany, Oregon.

A good day for the whole community to come together.
Blue, red or purple, we all support our veterans!

Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going!

Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists.

We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.
Stock of Spotify over last month showing sharp decline, from near $700 in value to $615.

Attended the "Ice Out of Our Barrio" event this Saturday put on by Latinos Unidos Siempre. An ofrenda was built to honor those who died by injustice. Amazing performances, sharing latino culture, brought beauty too these tough times.

A woman in traditional dress sings along side an ofrenda built for those who died by injustice. (An ofrenda is an altar built to honor and deceased loved ones during Dia de los Metros (Day of the Dead.) Two women hold a large banner with drawing of an ICE agent with a no sign through it while attending the rally. Two women wearing medical masks, stand near the capitol with signs. One saying “Resist ICE” and the other “Stop Separating Families, Keep ICE out of our Barrio.”

It's outrageous that Spotify is running ICE ads. Move to another streaming platform that doesn't profit from exploiting artists while recruiting for ICE.

This week, we’re in trial in the district court putting on evidence showing that the federal government’s deployment of National Guard is unlawful and unnecessary.

Here's what happened on day 1 and what's next:
Lawsuit update re: National Guard in Portland Trial, day 1: Law enforcement witnesses describe “startling” tactics from ICE officers What happened: Wednesday 10/29 through Friday 10/31, we’re in trial in the district court putting on evidence showing that the federal government’s deployment of National Guard is unlawful and unnecessary. On Wednesday, our witnesses - entirely local and state law enforcement officers in uniform - described how federal agents at the ICE building used “startling” excessive force and testified that local law enforcement was sufficient to handle any criminal activity. What's next: Thursday will mostly consist of the federal government’s case, including witness testimony from DHS and ICE officials. We will cross-examine those witnesses. We’ll continue to make our case that National Guard deployment in Oregon is unlawful and unnecessary - and we’ll continue to share updates as we have them.

Shout out to local Salem Or business, On Any Sunday, for the “Giving Table” at their ice cream shop, through November and December.

Nonperishable food items can be dropped off between 12:00 & 9:00 p.m. 7 days a week until Dec. 23.

Address: 3987 commercial Street Southeast Salem.
#SNAP #FoodShare
Table and bags full of non- perishable food for those in the community with food insecurity and losing SNAP benefits. “WOW! I can't believe the amount of support people have shown for this small idea that feels like it's just exploding. My only fear at this point is that people won't come and utilize it fast enough! If you need food bring a bag and make sure to take the things that you need! Any cash donations that we have or will receive at the shop will go directly towards purchasing canned proteins like canned chicken and tuna fish as well as rice.” - Caleb, owner of On Any Sundae

An SRI member of modest means, mentioned that she’s started adding a few non-perishable food items to her cart every time she goes grocery shopping, in order to drop off at Food Share.
