ZENITH UPDATE: The council approved the transfer of the Zenith franchise after reconsidering the vote. Today, the ordinance passed by a 7-6 vote, with the Mayor casting the deciding vote. Once again, I voted no because I believe accountability is not optional.

Introducing the Fair Share Tax, Portland’s small businesses shouldn’t shoulder the burden while corporations reward CEOs hundreds of times more than their workers and enjoy generous tax breaks. Today, @councilorgreen.bsky.social and I will introduce the Fair Share Tax plan to change that.

While the majority of the media ecosystem focused on decorum during the budget they ignored the real story: 6 Councilors voted against an amendment that allowed Council to exercise our oversight powers to investigate what’s happening to these people. www.portlandmercury.com/news/records...

A document obtained by the Mercury that summarizes anonymized complaints shows a variety of recurring issues guests raise about Urban Alchemy-run sites. Among them, complaints of unsanitary conditions, allegations that staff stole guests' personal items, multiple claims that staff sexually harassed or sexually assaulted guests, and alleged retaliation against multiple guests who filed complaints. Other allegations include a lack of disability accommodations, staff failing to address violence by other guests, and staff trading goods and cash in exchange for sex.
