  • S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local
    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.

  • Today We Are Unified in Calling on Residents and Visitors to Our
    Today we are unified in calling on residents and visitors to our respective communities to refrain from violence in the exercise of our First Amendment rights to free speech and to peaceably assemble. Black Lives Matter. Violence has no place in civic engagement and protest. Throughout 2020, and in too many years prior, we have born witness to instances of racial injustice, police brutality and the rise of white supremacist rhetoric throughout our country, and right here at home. Even now we are experiencing unhelpful and inflammatory comments and acts, from many quarters, including the highest office in the land. The overwhelming majority of our community who have risen to protest for social justice and against racial inequities have done so peacefully, in keeping with public health guidelines and within the bounds protected by our state and federal constitutions. Unfortunately, there are some individuals who have chosen violence over peaceful protest, violence towards other protestors, violence towards police officers and even an instance of deadly violence experienced recently in downtown Portland. While we recognize the outrage toward racial injustice is the foundation for the past 100+ days of protest, we call on everyone in our community seeking to confront racial injustice and to demand police accountability to forgo the path of violence. We invite every member of our respective communities to continue to engage with our governments, to hold us accountable and to contribute to and facilitate a transformation away from racist systems and towards a more equitable, just community. Similarly, we ask those who may want to demonstrate to do so peacefully and safely.

    OREGON STATE LEGISLATURE July 23, 2020 The Honorable William Barr Attorney General U.S. Department of Justice Washington, D.C. 20530 The Honorable Chad Wolf Acting Secretary Department of Homeland Security Washington, D.C. 20528 Dear Sirs, As representatives from communities across the State of Oregon, we are writing to request that you immediately remove federal personnel from the streets of Portland unless authorized by the city’s elected officials. We are aligned with members of our federal delegation, including Senators Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden and Congress members Suzanne Bonamici and Earl Blumenauer, Governor Kate Brown, our Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum, and Portland’s mayor, Ted Wheeler, in our shared assessment that the uninvited presence of federal agents is an abuse of power. Upon assuming office, we each took a vow to defend the Constitutions of the United States and the State of Oregon. We take that responsibility to heart. Confronted with clear evidence that federal agents are engaging in unconstitutional activities resulting in significant harm to individuals and our community as a whole, we are obligated to respond. We refuse to allow our streets to be a playground for political theatrics intended to deflect attention from the president’s failure to control a deadly pandemic. We will not stand by while violent actions exacerbate conditions on our streets. Accordingly, we demand the immediate withdrawal of federal operatives from the City of Portland. Regards, Representative Pam Marsh, HD 05 Representative Alissa Keny-Guyer, HD 46 Capitol Address: 900 Court St NE, Salem, OR 97301 Contact: Rep Pam Marsh, Phone: (503) 986-1405, [email protected] Speaker Tina Kotek, HD 44 Senate Majority Leader Rob Wagner, SD 19 House Majority Leader Barbara Smith Senator Elizabeth Steiner Hayward MD, SD 17 Warner, HD 45 Representative Dan Rayfield, HD 16 Senator Lew Frederick, SD 22 Representative Tawna Sanchez, HD 43 Senator James I.
