A veteran being "proud of their service" doesnt mean they are proud of the actions the US Military takes around the world .
For most (at least before 2024) Joining the military isnt an effort to support genocide or inflict imperialism.
For most, its the opposite.

HOMELESSNESS IS NOT A DRUG PROBLEM IT'S A HOUSING PROBLEM
I'm so sick of y'all in my mentions with this talking point, just stop.
PEOPLE CANNOT AFFORD RENT. Half of renters are paying over 30% of their income on rent, another quarter are paying over 50%!!!
People need homes they can afford!

Since I lost my old job and started this one my rent now takes 60% of my income. With utilities, gas, and the phone bill I’m at 90% before I’ve even fed myself and the cat. They’re squeezing us dry out here.

Sweeps do actually kill people. I watched it happen to houseless neighbors of mine. 5 years our neighborhood had zero issues. Each sweep they became more and more worn down.

Portland Said It Was Investing in Homeless People’s Safety. Deaths Have Quadrupled.
The city responded to an increase in homeless deaths by intensifying encampment sweeps and adding emergency shelter at the expense of permanent housing. Experts say this has perpetuated the problem.

Homelessness and Housing are top issues in Portland. It would be unacceptable for the Mayor and staff to not show up to address the missing $21 MILLION dollars that Council was not informed about.
Council has subpoena powers and if the executive wants to force our hand, so be it. We will use it.

Portland City Council will meet today to discuss the "Homelessness to Housing Continuum."
The original idea was for it to be a venue for Mayor Wilson to talk about his homelessness plan. But per Wilson's office, it's not certain he'll show up.
(And bureau staff have been advised not to attend.)

It could cost USPS more than *$6 billion* a year in lost revenue, and lead Amazon to dominate yet another facet of the economy.
