Keeping busy in August: No on Measure 105, plus supporting Planned Parenthood, kickoff for Governor Brown's campaign in Lane County

Three upcoming events:

1. On Monday, August 20th, Barbara Miller will host a kickoff meeting for our work against Measure 105. She will share everything we know about the campaign against Measure 105 that is being coordinated by One Oregon. Measure 105 is the attempt to roll back Oregon's sanctuary state statute. Bring a list of contacts (Oregon voters) to whom you'd like to send information on the measure and opportunities to work against it. We will provide lists from the campaign as they become available, but you are welcome to bring your own: membership lists, directories, just people that you know.

For details on the location, contact Barbara at barbaramiller853@gmail.com or contact the legislative task force at swvnowltf.gmail.com. We will convene officially at 7p, but feel free to drop by later if that fits your schedule better. Barbara would appreciate an RSVP if you plan to attend.

2. Even before the Monday event, we have a chance to support Planned Parenthood on Sunday, August 19th:

Join the fight against confirming Brett Kavanaugh

Brett Kavanaugh has an extremely conservative record on many issues of importance to NOW.  Two key areas of concern are  his attitude with respect to Roe V Wade and his extreme positions on gun rights. We have the opportunity to join allies like Planned Parenthood and Moms Demand Action to work against his nomination. Both of these organizations have organized phone banks for calling voters in states of key senators, encouraging them to contact their senators on this matter.

Moms Demand Action here in Eugene is planning phone banks every Wednesday morning (11a-1p) to call residents of Maine and Thursday afternoons to call residents of Alaska. We will update this blog with specifics of location when they become available. Check your email from swvnowltf@gmail.com for more info on making calls.

There is a less precise schedule for the Planned Parenthood activities, but you can sign up here to become a Planned Parenthood Defender. (PPD): I Stand with Planned Parenthood: Take Action


As a PPD you will receive notifications of new activities.

A few days in the life of a Eugene activist...

Carol Scherer, one of our activist members, gives some insight into the potential scope of involvement around Eugene. She sent this list of activities over the next couple of weeks:

What a whirl-wind of actions for justice!  Besides the Yes on 101 rally Sunday [Dec 3rd], 350 Eugene is having a rally at REI as part of a wider effort to get the corporation to stop working with financial institutions that have clients working with the fossil fuel industry.  There is an on-line petition if you go to the 350 Eugene page.  Also Sunday, an excellent presentation by a noted forester about proper forest management, sponsored by the Many Rivers Sierra Club. 

Tuesday is the Noon Tuesday rally hosted by Indivisible and Take Action Eugene.  Got an email from an ACLU People Power leader just moments ago about a Tuesday action ALCU is proposing regarding the Supreme Court "cake case".  Perhaps Noon Tuesday will focus on this issue.  Each week it varies.

Thursday, December 7, Our Revolution Lane County has organized a demonstration outside the Coburg Verizon store in support of net neutrality.  This is also on the facebook pages.  That evening is another excellent film at the Bijou on 13th, hosted by Encircle Films.  Always sold out.  So get tickets ahead.  Highly recommended.

Planning to attend Saturday, December 9, at a Health Care for Oregon seminar regarding Yes on 101 and how to effectively communicate about the issue.  Let me know if you would like particulars.  It may be on their websites.

Monday, December 11 is another Eugene City Council meeting.  350 Eugene will be continuing to emphasize the importance of an ordinance to stand with the Thin Green Line being formed along the west coast to prohibit fossil fuel transportation to China.

Thursday, December 14, is Friends of Sanctuary monthly meeting.  I and another will be presenting information about the Gorge ICE Resistance and how we might be helpful.

Will be tabling for 350 Eugene at the Holiday Market at the fairgrounds December 17, providing information about why it is important to stop the Jordan Cove LNG pipeline.

 

Get to work, you people!...Please?!

There are two activities of some urgency that we recommend that you support:

First, this Sunday:

Yes on 101 Rally and Canvass

Sunday, December 3, 2017 -

12:00pm to 1:00pm


Wayne Morse Free Speech Plaza • 125 E. 8th Ave., Eugene OR

Join Yes for Healthcare volunteers at a Eugene rally and canvass to help make sure every voter knows to vote YES on Measure 101 - which would protect healthcare for vulnerable Oregonians, including seniors, people with disabilities, and 400,000 children. Rally from 12-1 p.m., then hit the streets to do some door-knocking. Bring your rain boots and umbrella.

This event has been organized by the Democratic Party of Lane County, but it is a bipartisan activity of interest to anyone who wants to maintain current levels of access to health insurance in Oregon. No registration is required; just show up. We will add details on how the canvassing is expected to work if they become available. Link to DLPC event info: http://dplc.org/calendar/yes-101-rally-and-canvass 

 

Second, National NOW asks us to work hard to counter the current US Senate tax bill. This information has been distributed via email (and it's long), but we repeat is here for completeness:

Senate Bill Cuts Taxes for Top One Percent, Raises Taxes on Others, Kills the ACA

Tax Breaks for the Very Rich - This week the Senate will likely vote on a cruel tax bill which increases taxes on 87 million middle-class taxpayers while granting a huge tax break for the richest one percent and for wealthy corporations. As Donald Trump urged, the Senate bill would repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA) insurance mandate, causing 13 million persons to lose coverage and an inevitable collapse of the ACA. Loss of affordable health insurance will disproportionately harm women and their families.

With their inability to pass any major legislation this year, Republicans are under immense pressure to have a win. They are especially anxious to reward their millionaire and billionaire donors. The vote will be very close, so please call your two senators ASAP, 202-224-3121 or find their office phone numbers here.

Raises Taxes on Everyone Else – The bottom 80 percent of the income distribution would see a tax hike by 2027 and, according to the Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation this would result in higher rates for persons earning under $10,000 to $75,000. The harshest impact would be on women who are paid less due wage discrimination and on those with poverty level incomes. At the same time, everyone with incomes $75,000 and higher gets a cut in their rate. A change in the inflation adjustment is made, resulting in permanent changes for tax brackets so that taxpayers would be paying more over time. These unfair and unbalanced approaches will further grow the nation’s already yawning wealth gap.

The Senate Republican Tax Cuts and Jobs Act would:

  • Cut the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 20 percent and set an even lower rate on U.S. taxes that multinationals would pay on foreign profits, thereby encouraging more off-shoring of U.S. companies and profit shifting, while killing more jobs.
  • Pay for the cost of reducing taxes on the wealthy by permanently repealing the Affordable Care Act’s mandate that everyone have insurance, causing 13 million persons to lose coverage and raising premiums for those remaining in the program. The ACA would ultimately collapse.
  • Mandate automatic Medicare cuts of at least $24 billion in 2018 and $400 billion over ten years, causing seniors to pay for tax breaks for the wealthy. Also, there will be a $1 trillion Medicaid cut that means far fewer low-income persons -- a majority being women -- will have access to health care services.
  • Add at least $1.4 trillion and perhaps as much as $1.8 trillion to the deficit, jeopardizing critical services and undermining Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, public education, and a wide range of critical human needs programs.
  • Endanger funding for such programs as Social Services Block Grants which help fund child care, foster care, elder abuse prevention, Meals on Wheels plus various higher education programs aiding historically black colleges, Hispanic-serving institutions and tribal colleges, vocational rehabilitation state grants, and an array of farm support programs – to name just few of the many vital programs that will come on the chopping block.

PLEASE CALL NOW – Urge both of your senators to vote against this cruel tax bill that makes women, low and middle-income families, and seniors pay for huge tax cuts for the rich and for wealthy corporations. Call the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121 or click here to find the senators’ office phone numbers.

THANKS FOR EVERYTHING THAT YOU DO FOR WOMEN AND FOR NOW!

Summary for October 2017, covering Legislative Forum

Appeal for time-critical action: Measure 101

Funding to support Oregon’s Medicaid extension under the ACA will go to the voters for approval in a special ballot on January 23rd. The gist of the measure is this: by design, the ACA funded Medicaid expansion fully until 2017. At the point, states have to step up their Medicaid support, beginning with 5% this year and stepping up to 10% of the cost of folks added under the expansion in a few years. The legislature passed a bill that levied an assessment on elements of the healthcare industry to cover the new funding gap. This approach was developed with the cooperation of the healthcare industry. Because of this challenge by initiative, Oregon voters must vote for Measure 101 to maintain this critical funding. Oregon NOW endorses a "yes" vote on Measure 101.

Resources:

  • FAQ as well as ways to get involved in the “Yes” campaign appear here: http://yesforhealthcare.org/
  • We encourage you to reach out to friends and family to ensure that this measure is supported actively in January.

Recap of Oregon NOW Legislative Forum

Our recent efforts have focused on organizing and hosting the Oregon NOW Legislative Forum which was held here in Eugene on 4 November 2017. The meeting served to (1) build a common understanding of legislative challenges at the state and (to some extent) national levels and (2) to initiate cooperation among chapters in our response to those challenges. Highlights:

  • Attendance (and participation) by about 25 NOW members from around the state. All five NOW chapters were represented as well as the state board.
  • Two panel discussions:
    • An advocacy panel with Kate Newhall, Policy Director, Family Forward, advocating for Paid Family and Medical Leave Insurance and Stable Housing bills; Penny Okamoto, Executive Director, Ceasefire Oregon, advocating for gun safety legislation at state and national levels. These panel members also discussed mechanisms through which our organization can interact with the legislature to influence their decision-making.
    • A legislative / governmental panel with local representatives Julie Fahey and Phil Barnhart, our local senator James Manning, and Karmen Fore, Senior Director for Federal Affairs and Transportation, Office of the Governor. These panelists extended the discussion on key legislative measures as well as means for interaction, adding the perspective of the government side of the citizen / government interaction.
  • An extended discussion regarding priority issues for NOW as well as some brainstorming about how we can continue the collaboration that we began at the forum. Key takeaways from this session:
    • Oregon NOW endorses Measure 101, Yes on Healthcare, which comes to a vote on January 23. Each chapter agreed to take support for this measure up locally. We will continue to investigate and publicize opportunities for supporting this key financial measure.
    • Although environmental issues have not been identified as a priority at the national level of NOW, the consensus of this group was that these issues are of critical concern in Oregon. A special interest group will be performed to support, among other legislation, the Oregon Clean Jobs (cap and invest) bill that is a current subject of intensive legislative consideration.
    • It is hoped that some straight-forward gun safety legislation is within reach in the short 2018 Oregon legislative session. In particular, the governor has identified closing the “Charleston loophole” and closing the “boyfriend loophole” as objectives for this session. These two loopholes currently allow, respectively, (1) sale of a gun to an applicant without an affirming background check if the check fails to complete within a statutory time period (currently 3 days) and (1) sale of a gun to a person who has been convicted of stalking or of violence against a dating partner (current law only protects family members and persons who have co-habited). Another legislative interest group is anticipated to follow legislation relating gun safety and violence.
    • NOW should continue to support issues affecting the welfare of women and families in Oregon. A special interest group will also be formed to further our support for Family and Medical Leave Insurance and fair affordable housing among others.
    • Revenue is the key to closing Oregon budget gaps and enabling the extension of services that will help to close income gaps and protect families. This topic may lead to another interest group.
    • Although we didn’t have enough time to address these topics at more than a cursory level, we also want to organize our support to protect women’s rights and immigrants’ rights at the national level.

We plan to follow up on this one-day session through any means we can find that prove effective: conference calls, email lists, face-to-face meetings, web sites. We will keep you posted on emerging activities.

Legislation: Past, Present, Future

As the new academic year starts, we have the opportunity to review recent accomplishments in the legislature and get involved in planning for the upcoming short session in 2018. Here are several places to look for more information. Please look beyond the Ceasefire event, which is first because of time-criticality, to find links to one recorded forum and one report.

Ceasefire Leads Discussion of Firearms Legislation

On September 26th, Ceasefire will host a discussion of the current status of firearms legislation in Oregon and at the federal level. Location is local in Eugene, but you will need to email Ceasefire for location details.

CeasefireMeetingAnnouncement_2017-09-26.jpg
