Welp, this work session has been postponed.
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.)

@minnesotareformer.com is looking for $upport! They do crucial work in Minnesota, and publish excellent, important stories.
We're a small, scrappy team at the Reformer, and we can't do what we do without your help. Donations helped us get safety supplies, which let us jump into action when a reader tipped us off to ICE activity Tuesday. If you'd like to help us too, use or share this link🧵 minnesotareformer.com/donate/

It’s hard to capture how momentous Coach Beam’s death is. As a former member of the Peralta and Laney communities, I can say, his name was everywhere, in the best way. Rest in power and may your legacy live long.
