Get Trump's occupying troops out of Portland Democratic Party of Oregon
Federal officers are roaming the streets of downtown Portland in unmarked vans and in camouflage, rounding up people and detaining them with no explanation or identification. They're assaulting peaceful protestors with potentially deadly munitions and tear gas, in the middle of a pandemic. They're trampling over our constitutional rights as a political stunt to try to stop the bleeding of Trump's flailing re-election campaign. You'd expect these tactics from dictatorships and authoritarian governments, not in a democratic society. Oregon Democrats won't stand for this. Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum is suing the Trump administration, asking for a restraining order to prevent federal law enforcement from making any further arrests. And Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley are on their way back to Washington, D.C., right now to take action. They're demanding answers, and are introducing a measure to require Trump to remove these unwanted goon squads from America's streets. Oregon Democrats are working to get Trump's secret police out of Portland, but the only way we will truly put an end to this is to defeat Trump, take back the Senate, and elect Democrats up and down the ballot this November. • If you are able, please consider a donation to the Democratic Party of Oregon |
