"That means Voters for Responsive Government, which was formed as a political action committee in April, must have taken in all of the donations fueling its multi-million dollar campaign against Jayapal in the three weeks before the election – past the April 30 deadline that would have required the group to disclose its backers before Oregon’s May 21 primary."

Please enjoy, comment, and share this community with others.

Would be particularly interested to hear from local PDX artists about their messages.

Decide to take 10 mins to drive over and check it out. No roses yet.

The Rhododendrons are blooming though!

Any suggestions for where else to share and discuss PDX street art and activist/polemic art? Maybe a new category?

Welcome to the lemmy.world community for Portland, Oregon!

This community has kind of been empty since it was created, I'm hoping to change that!

Unlike "other" Portland communities you may have seen "elsewhere", I believe in a "warts and all" approach. You are free to take off your Rose tinted glasses and talk about topics that are dragging our city down.

At the same time, sunset pics, snowmageddon, traffic monster, cones, that's all welcome as well. Let's collectively keep Portland weird!

2024 is going to be an interesting year politically with all the changes to city government, I will attempt to tag political threads with a [Politics] tag and encourage users to do so as well.

Other than the lemmy.world restrictions on spam, copyrighted material, and adult material (USE that NSFW tag!), there's only one real way to get in trouble here:

  1. Don't attack other users.

It's OK to go after Teargas Ted, it's OK to say Rene Gonzales is a fascist, ACAB, BLM, whatever floats your boat (WEFYB).

It's NOT OK to attack or diminish another user. Feel free to disagree, you can point out the many ways you think they're wrong, just don't start throwing perjoratives AT OTHER USERS.
