Indivisible Calls to Action
Our national organization, adds to their calls to action weekly:
Take Action Now Indivisible
Call your Republican Representative
Bentz is silently supporting Trump's $1 billion/day killing spree in Iran. Call Rep Bentz and give him a list of things you'd rather see your tax dollars being used for, besides bombing school children and other civilians, putting our service members in harm's way, not to mention the escalating cost of gas and groceries. Here are just a few things his constituents need and want more than another foreign war:
Affordable healthcare
Affordable housing
Affordable groceries and gas
Free public education, including community college
Protecting our environment
Renewable energy
Cancer and other disease research
Improved roads and safe bridges
Safety and security at home
Peace and diplomacy
Wildfire mitigation
More judges to administer FAIR immigration policies and provide a reasonable path to citizenship

Check out this great reporting by the Oregon Capital Chronicle on Rep Bentz's questionable use of taxpayer dollars for travel expenses. But wait! There's more. The Malheur Enterprise found other luxury travel billed to the taxpayers!
And check out this Silent But Deadly Cartoon Cliff that completely nails it.
Indivisible Oregon Federal Calls to Action
This large and active group in Portland produces a great weekly federal call to action, complete with scripts and contact information for our various Oregon members of Congress. They post a new one every Monday, so plan to make your calls every week after Monday.
If you learn of immigrants who are in danger of being detained by ICE, please proved them with this information: PIRC (Portland Imigrant Rights Coalition) 888-622-1510
Contact us at protectoregonsprogress@gmail.com if you'd like to attend an upcoming ICE verification training.
If you'd like to put a "Somos Inmigrantes" yard sign or a poster at your home or business, please contact us at protectoregonsprogress@gmail.com. We're asking for a $10 donation to help cover the yard sign costs, but the posters are free.
For more action resources you can download the 5 Calls app which provides context and call scripts for a variety of issues.
