Email or call the offices of Senator Meek and Senator Sollman to let them know that you support SB 611 as-is and oppose the amendments ASAP this morning 4/3. If you’re a renter, tell them what a 10-15% rent increase would mean to you and your family and why they need to put tenant’s interests first and not the landlord lobby.

This is so typical of the justice system in Oregon. If the police do their jobs then the DA doesn't. If the DA does its job then the police don't and they all sit and blame the other. Then they gather together to praise the Feds for doing their job for them. All while keeping a rapist employed with access to victims. #AbolishPrison #ACAB #1312Always #OregonPol #PNW #Goldbricking

This is peak Portland Liberalism. Black Bloc and Proud Boys are the same under this proposed legislation. That means just being in a black bloc is an automatic felony if this passes. Absolutely absurd. The supporters of the bill? Every law enforcement agency in the state.
