🏳️‍⚧️ WHEN WE FIGHT, WE WIN! 🏳️‍⚧️ CHLA reversed its decision to pause initiating hormonal therapy for transgender youth. Gender affirming care is lifesaving care. We must continue to fight back, stay organized, and to demand institutions not give into Trumps fascist executive orders.

LA Tenants Union is pretty amazing (@latenantsunion.bsky.social). Nothing like participating in confrontational eviction defense with a bunch of abuelas who learned during the United Farm Workers action. Talk about people who don't get rattled by cops!

Good reminder that one of our demands is for eviction protection surrounding weather events like ice and snow storms that wreck havoc on working class people who cannot make it to work or have other unexpected emergencies arise from a storm.

Huge props to all of our comrades who worked on the #Prop1A campaign. Hours upon hours working with @houseourneighbors.bsky.social on canvassing, phone banking, postering, and more led to a monumental WIN for the people of Seattle. Billion dollar corps can't buy the people's vote.

We had a great canvass on Saturday inviting folks to our Renters’ Town Hall on Feb 22. We had 7 new to us canvassers, most had never gone door to door. Over 200 invites were distributed, and almost 20 new folks signed the Renters’ Bill of Rights. #portland #pdx #rentersrights #orpol

Portland & wider Oregon friends, just in case you don’t have this number saved in your phone yet: hotline to report any EYEWITNESS accounts (not rumors!!) of ICE activity.

I wrote about my brief unlikely local politics interlude for @thecut.com. Written with love for Portland & loathing for the genocidal clowns who made national politics so alienating. If you have an amazing friend maybe you can accidentally be her campaign manager too. www.thecut.com/article/how-...

I have received a number of messages urging me to oppose our sanctuary laws, for worry they hinder the city’s ability to address unsheltered homelessness. Let me be very clear: Immigrants and asylum seekers have my unwavering support, as do the poorest among us forced to live on the streets.
