The counted ballots were 62 Yes and 15 No. There were some challenged ballots, but not enough to change the results of the election. It's a decisive win!

I'm in love with the new #RoseLane on NE Couch! So much better than the parallel Davis bike route with its speed bumps and semi trucks parked in the turn lane on NE 12th. Thank you @PBOTinfo! 🌹🚴‍♂️🚌💨 #pdx #gobybike @BikePortland – at Portland, OR

What does abortion criminalization have to do with movements to end police violence and criminalization? Everything. Our movements are connected and we can and must fight back together. Uplifting our resource: bit.ly/DecrimAbortion #LetThisRadicalizeYou #RoeVsWade

The President telling people to be peaceful while they send riot battalions to the Supreme Court, which has snipers on the roof and just ruled that women can die rather than get an abortion is truly sick.

The worst-case scenarios are coming home to roost. We simply cannot afford to sustain separate, siloed movements; they are coming for every hard-fought civil right won in the last 50 years. WE have to fight back like our lives depend on it. Because they do. Join us.

The same SCOTUS that said yesterday that states don’t have the ability to regulate guns today gave states the power to regulate women’s bodies.

Maybe the fucking problem started with an institutionalized cohort willing to have lunch with segregationists rather than making them sit alone by the garbage while everybody yelled at them and threw trash.
NOW - Biden: "Even back in the old days when we had real segregationists... at least we'd end up eating lunch together."

Tomorrow join ⁦@CURBprisons⁩ for the statewide rally to close prisons. CA still has 34 prisons and only 32 state universities and is #1 worldwide in prison spending and near the bottom in U.S. spending for K-12 and higher education. bit.ly/MayActionRSVP ⁦@ECCUnion⁩

Just a friendly reminder that abortion wasn't a major issue in religious institutions until the religious right needed a more palatable road to power once segregation fell outta favor. bostonglobe.com/opinion/2018…

Quick direct action tips from your friendly local street medics: - Bring a buddy - Remove contacts and tampons - Fill out a jail support form - Tell someone who isn't in the streets, check in if you can - Drink water - Use water ONLY to flush pepper spray and tear gas from eyes
