All I want for Christmas is a progressive leader who actually gives a shit about Oregonians who aren't rich af
Cutting property taxes for Oregonians affected by wildfires. Canceling planned freeway tolls. Pausing local new taxes in the Portland area. We have to keep going to make life more affordable for Oregonians.

"Why does Sonic need a car?" motherfucker why do YOU? You can run everywhere too if you want to but here you are. Maybe address north american urban design so we can get some 15 minute cities, and quality public transit options.

So apparently the sky is falling because Councilor Morillo wants to move $4.3 million from the camp sweeps budget to… wait for it… housing, food, and community support.
Here’s the deal: Portland spends about $17 million a year on the “Impact Reduction Program.”

Disability is the only marginalized group you can join at any time. One accident. One illness. One shift in your body. Growing older. That’s not fear... it’s perspective. Inclusion isn’t “for them.” It’s for all of us.

Hey @pbotinfo.bsky.social how is removing diverters "fixing are streets"? This is some shenanigans we dont need right now. We should be building out bike infrastructure not tearing it down.
PBOT is removing many planters/diverters. Streets are being made less safe as part of "Fixing Our Streets".
BikeLoud will be writing letters and following up. It's helpful if YOU read the @bikeportland.org article and comment there too!
Every bit of street safety takes so much work! Aargh!

I wish portland would invest in safer bike infrastructure, especially at intersections. Portland, the future is bikes
🚲🚶 Dutch-style protected intersections are making U.S. streets safer — from Fremont, CA to Charlotte, NC. Early results show big crash reductions thanks to smarter design.

When they rolled back measure 110, I was devastated. My mother struggled with heroin addiction. She died from an overdose. I wish this kind of program had been available to her because I know it would have saved her life. Decriminalization saves lives. Criminalizing addiction leads to death.
A recent study from the Portland State University finds no direct link between Measure 110 — which decriminalized personal drug possession — and rising crime and overdose deaths.

We simply cannot afford a doom loop for TriMet. Reduction in service will lead to a reduction in ridership, leading to declining fares, more cuts, 🔁 The cost will be increased congestion, further deterioration in PBOT assets and of course emissions. We can’t afford that. Call your state reps.
