I also think the framing of DSA vs the Democrats, while welcome, is not quite right here. It should really be DSA vs Metro Chamber, who are quoted like 10 times and have had a stranglehold on Portland city hall forever, so much so that they effectively control the city’s economic development agency

Dept. of Early Learning and Care Standards: part-time/part-year, tiny programs, poverty wages & long waiting lists. By Fall 2025 in Mult Co, Preschool for All will serve more kids, pay nearly $5/hr more, have more variety of programs and $$ coming in to expand to all kids by Fall 2030.

Note Kanal 10 was about whether PPB should prioritize community needs, incl. human trafficking, stolen vehicle operations, etc., or continue to prioritize OT hours on community presence & large responses to peaceful demonstrations.

I'm grateful it passed, & surprised it wasn't 12-0 (read it!).

Sycophant shit honestly. All the chatter from the conservative side of Portland has been nominally about those core services. Apparently that was all a lie and their priority is not actually “crime” and “public safety” broadly. Their priority is preventing protests. What a waste
