In a letter to #Homan, who serves as executive associate director of enforcement and removal operations (aka 'Border Czar'), #Wyden said the town hall would allow the administration official to hear directly from #Oregonians about #immigration policy.

"I would certainly welcome your participation at my next #MultnomahCounty town hall, which I am working to schedule next month, so you can hear directly from Oregonians."

Multnomah County in den #USA verklagt große Öl- und Gasunternehmen wegen ihrer Rolle bei der #Hitzewelle 2021, die 69 Menschen das Leben kostete. Die Klage zielt auf #ExxonMobil, #Shell und #Chevron ab und behauptet, diese hätten bewusst die Risiken des #Klimawandels verharmlost. Die Klage könnte ein Präzedenzfall sein, indem sie spezifische #Gesundheitskosten durch extreme #Hitze thematisiert.

The county sent me an email to let me know my ballot for the upcoming May election is in the mail. I already have the booklet. I will have days to complete the ballot and return it, either through the mail, or at a drop box. My signature will be on the outside of the envelope. If it doesn't match, there will be further steps to verify identity before my ballot is counted. This is how you do it.

These are the criteria for offering shelter to #UnhousedPeople in the #PortlandMetro area:

Winter shelters in #MultnomahCounty open when forecasted temperatures are 25 degrees or below, if forecasted snow accumulation is an inch or more or if forecasted temperatures are at or below 32 degrees with one inch of rain or more overnight.

Our political “leaders” sent #UnhousedPeople to spend the night on ice & snow covered ground because those criteria werent met.

Talk about the banality of evil.
