Portland stands in solidarity with Madison, Wisconsin and other states where the people are confronting a nationwide union-busting effort. Friday, 4 pm Terry Shrunk is all you need to know.
GET THE FACTS
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS
TAKE A STAND
This morning Media Matters posted this report from Madison Wisconsin where protests continue. Fox News has been forced to air footage of Wisconsin labor protesters shouting "Fox lies" and "tell the truth" during its live coverage of the labor protests.
We've said it before and we'll say it again: Portland and other Oregon law enforcement agencies should not participate in the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, but instead should cooperate with federal anti-terrorism efforts only on a case-by-case. In fact, we just told the Portland City Council that again last week, but they're still considering it.
The Portland City Council has scheduled a public hearing for Thursday, February 24 beginning at 2 p.m. at City Hall regarding the City’s relationship with the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF). This hearing may be the only chance you will have to let your voice be heard before City Council decides whether Portland will continue to insist on the civilian oversight necessary to ensure that Portland police comply with Oregon law and the Constitution when they participate in terrorism investigations.
