PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER WHETHER TO ENACT A RESOLUTION AFFIRMING THE CITY OF FOREST GROVE'S COMMITMENT TO A SAFE, OPEN, AND INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY FOR ALL PEOPLE 1. Michael Ross, e-mail dated December 22, 2016 2. Kathlene Postma, e-mail dated January 1, 2017 3. Sara DeFilipps, e-mail dated January 4, 2017 4. Charlotte, Lumae, e-mail dated January 4, 2017 Anna Ruggles From: Michael Ross ~ . ~m> Sent: Thursday, December 2~ To: Anna Ruggles Subject: Sanctuary Forest Grove City Council As a Forest Grove taxpayer, 49320 NW Ruby Lane, Forest Grove, 97116, I oppose any action of the City Council that would violate federal law, or fail to enforce federal laws. Article I. Section 8, clause 4 of the Constitution entrusts the federal legislative branch with the power to "establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization." This clear textual command for uniformity establishes that the federal government. specifically Congress, is responsible for crafting the laws that determine how and when noncitizens can become naturalized citizens of the United States. Federal immigration law has been around since 1790, only one year after the Constitution. Common sense dictates, as well. that only the federal government can sensibly make laws governing who can enter the country, since one state does not have jurisdiction over another. The City Council has no legal or constitutional authority in this area, and should enforce existing federal law. The City Council and its constituents should pursue legislative and suffrage means to change the law if they disagree with it. Otherwise, keep out of it. Blessings, Mike Ross 1 Anna Ruggles From: Kathlene Postma < > Sent: Sunday, January 01 , 2017 11 : To: Anna Ruggles Subject: Forest Grove a sanctuary city Dear Council Members, I support the city council making a resolution affirming the inclusiveness of our community and our unwillingness to participate in actions against local people because of their immigration status. Even though to outsiders we may seem to be simply a suburb of Portland, the reality is we are a vibrant and diverse community. Our neighborhoods are made up of a mix of people of different faiths and politics. Our public schools are very diverse, with half of the student population people of color. We have an immense amount of goodwill in our town. It is something to protect and fo ster. The prospect of children being separated from their parents because they don't yet have all the necessary paperwork or some of our neighbors removed from our community for the same reason is disturbing and frightening. We cannot have people turning on each other or families being afraid. We cannot let national politics tum our town into an ugly place, one where people tum a blind eye to the cruel treatment of our neighbors. We should instead be supporting each other and continuing to work together on keeping and always improving our peaceful community. Thank you for your hard work on behalf of our town. Best Wishes, Kathlene Postma - C Street 1 Anna Ruggles From: Sara Defilipps ~ Sent: Wednesday, January 04, 2017 10:34 AM To: Anna Ruggles Subject: Immigration hearing To whom it may concern, I'm writing to express my concern and opinion on the upcoming hearing about Forest Grove's immigrant policy because I'm unable to attend the hearing. I feel very strongly that we need to stay a safe place for a ll people and not encourage the hate and discrimination towards people seeking refuge and a better life. These ore families in our community and I don't see them as criminals. I feel it's not the city's job to enforce this particular federal law because we ore a small community that thrives on inclusion, not discrimination. Please keep Forest Grove a safe hoven for all human beings and don't spend money on tearing our community aport. I appreciate your consideration. Thank you, Sora DeFilipps Sent from my iPhone Anna Ruggles From: Charlotte Lumae > Sent: VVednesday, Janua~ To: Anna Ruggles Subject: Question about amount of federal funding of Forest Grove; seeking answer within the week to prepare for public hearing. Dear Anna Ruggles, I am a member of our local Forest Grove SURJ chapter and the Social Equity Committee of the Sustainability Commission, and this week I am helping residents prepare for the upcoming public hearing to consider a resolution to commit to a safe and inclusive community regardless of immigration status. http://wvvw.forestgrove-or.gov/news/latest-news/city-council-will-consider-commitment-to-a-safe-and-inclusive­ community. html I would like to request information about the city budget, specifically, how much federal funding could be at risk if Forest Grove were a Sanctuary City, and it somehow came to pass that Trump somehow pulled all federal funding from all sanctuary cities. Numbers for the city as a whole and law enforcement in particular would be much appreciated. For example, here is the risk for the sanctuary city of Portland, Oregon as reported by Mother Jones magazine: Up to 1.3 percent of its total budget and up to 2 percent of its police budget is at risk. If it would take more than a couple of days to make an exact answer, even a rough estimate would be very helpful, as we hope to share the information ASAP, before this weekend, so folks can prepare to have an informed discussion. Thank you for considering this question, and thank you for all you do for our city. Sincerely, Charlotte Lumae Charlotte Lumae, M.Ed. Academic Tutor .. 22nd Avenue (at A Street) Forest Grove, Oregon 9711 6 1 CITY RECORDER USE ONL Y: AGENDA ITEM #: FOREST ~ MEETING DATE: {.p ' GROVE OREGON FINALACTION: ______ A place where families and businesses thrive. TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Jesse VanderZanden, City Manager Paul Elsner, City Attorney MEETING DATE: January 9, 2017 SUBJECT TITLE: Public Hearing to consider whether to enact a resolution affirming the City of Forest Grove's commitment to a safe, open, and inclusive community for all people. BACKGROUND: At the December 1ih , 2016 meeting , Mayor Truax introduced a letter favoring a public hearing in January regarding a "sanctuary city" designation for Forest Grove. The consensus of the Council was to hold a public hearing and solicit input prior to making a decision. The Mayor's letter followed testimony from two 1 citizens at the November 28 h City Council meeting and a letter from State Rep. Susan Mclain encouraging a "sanctuary city" designation. The term "Sanctuary City" does not have a legal definition. Wikipedia defines it as: "A sanctuary city has adopted a policy of protecting undocumented immigrants by not prosecuting them solely for violating federal immigration laws in the country they are now living illegally. Such a policy can be set out expressly in a law (de jure) or observed only in practice (de facto) . The term applies generally to cities that do not use municipal funds or resources to enforce national immigration laws, and usually forbid police or municipal employees to inquire about a person's immigration status.

  • Association Endorsements 3/2/2017 SUPPORT SB 214-1
    Association Endorsements 3/2/2017 OPPOSE HB 2265. Allows parties to agree in writing to starting date for 150-day period after which parties involved in negotiations over terms of collective bargaining agreement may notify Employment Relations Board of need for mediator. The bill would make it easier for an employer to claim that negotiations started earlier than currently provided and expedite the process toward unilateral implementation. 3/2/2017 OPPOSE SB 648. Requires that labor negotiations be conducted in open meetings subject to notification requirements. This bill interferes with the rights of the collective bargaining team to choose between open or closed meetings. The bill would also make IBB untenable. 3/2/2017 SUPPORT SB 214-1. Provides that post-doctoral scholars at public universities and Oregon Health and Science University are not eligible to participate in Public Employees Retirement System or optional retirement plans offered by universities. PSU-AAUP and AAUP-Oregon worked with the government relations of PSU, UO, and other Oregon Universities, to fix serious concerns that we had about the original bill. 3/2/2017 SUPPORT HB 2187. Requires issue subject to collective bargaining during term of collective bargaining agreement that is not resolved through negotiation or mediation to be resolved through binding arbitration. It would become prohibited for public employees to strike when issue subject to collective bargaining during the term of a collective bargaining agreement is also subject to binding arbitration. This bill would provide an incentive for our administrative team to negotiate in good faith over interim bargaining matters, and to reach better resolutions.

In addition to the standard policy and budget committees, the Oregon House of Representatives will have new committees in the upcoming session to address timely issues, including wildfire recovery, redistricting, institutional reform of the Legislature, as well as subcommittees focusing on COVID-19 response, equitable policing and the return of a policy committee dedicated to early childhood issues. “Oregonians are facing crises that demand urgent action. The House is ready to lead on the issues that matter most in people’s lives right now. We also need to create the space to have a focused conversation about long-term, transformational changes to modernize the people’s legislature,” Speaker Kotek said. “I’m grateful for the diverse perspectives that my colleagues will bring as we all work together to help Oregonians navigate the big challenges that lie ahead.” Speaker Kotek communicated directly with every returning and new member of the Oregon House of Representatives before deciding on committee assignments, taking the time to weigh and discuss their priorities, interests and notable experience. She also consulted with both caucus leaders before finalizing the assignments. The House will convene on Monday, January 11 to swear in members.

  • Legislative Update
    LEGISLATIVE UPDATE Prepared for OAFP May 12, 2019 SB 765 – Primary Care Spending After nearly an hour of testimony on the Oregon Academy of Family Physician’s primary care spending bill, Rep. Rob Nosse (D-Portland) said, “I can’t figure out how it works.” For the past four years, insurers and CCOs have reported how much they spend on primary care as a percentage of their total medical spend. Part of the goal with SB 765 is to make the formula used to report that spending fits the national standard, so Oregon’s primary care spending can be compared with other states. “We now have an inaccurate report,” Jennifer DeVoe, MD, Chair of the Dept. of Family Medicine at OHSU, said. “People around the country are asking how did Oregon increase primary care spending from 6% to 12% in one year.” Glenn Rodriguez, MD, said we didn’t. We just changed the formula. “The methodology change in 2017 changed the percentage of primary care spending without actually increasing the amount spent on primary care.” State law says Oregon’s insurers and CCOs should spend 12% of their premium dollar on primary care. Devoe said, “The more money you spend on primary care, the more money you save.” A report from Portland State found that increased primary care spending through patient-centered primary care homes (PCPCH) saved $240 million in the first three years through lower emergency room use, fewer hospitalizations and reduced specialty care costs. The insurance carriers that testified — Cambia, Providence, Samaritan and Care Oregon — said they support primary care spending but were united in their opposition to the bill.

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.
