I've briefly met Senator Merkley at a town hall, gave him some info with my address on it, and he wrote me a note of thanks; it wasn't typed. He is the real deal---a great American and Oregonian who fights for our planet.
Governor Brown of Oregon just did something that will perhaps prevent someone from losing their housing. She is forgiving traffic fines and fees; they disproportionately affect low-income people.

Thanks Thom, absolutely great assessment and call to action.

It's encouraging to read of your conscientious politicians, in a time when so many of them have been bought out by corporate interests. Makes for a heart-warming Christmas message; now if we can just translate that into getting the homeless into their desired accommodations.
