At its core, our proposal is a tax on inequality, which is a scourge to us all - rich and poor. Inequality in income and wealth is a drag on our economy. We can and should tax the very corporations that cause it and use those proceeds to level the playing field and fund our services.

Not doing just a bit here: my office will be moving forward with some oversight on this. Here’s why: fundamentally, we changed our form of government to move away from backroom dealing on matters of public interest. Using code names for recurring meetings like this runs counter to transparency.

Did anyone else get a truly ridiculous push-poll testing anti-Preschool For All messaging? 🎩💰 Let's take a look at what our opposition is cooking! 👀 First up: means-testing. A classic method to minimize public support for programs to then under-fund them more easily!

"Now, here are some proposals that have been made regarding the Preschool for All program. For each one, please indicate if you find each one acceptable or unacceptable to you.

Implementing an income cap so the Preschool for All funds go only to lower income and working-class families who need the most financial help and support.

Acceptable

Unacceptable

And, would you say it is DEFINITELY UNACCEPTABLE or just PROBABLY UNACCEPTABLE?

Definitely unacceptable

Probably unacceptable

Great reporting and a good opportunity to reup for the public that my office has produced a series of reports, documents and letters that makes the economic case for why it's such a crucial program, while debunking claims or intimations that the tax was driving people out of the county.

✨Story Time!✨ Families are already moving to Multnomah County because of Preschool For All. They see how the program which is helping them set down roots now, will also help put them in a position to pay into it to help future families, creating a virtuous cycle and a healthy, thriving community.💛

On a playful yellow background in black text: "“When my family moved from Bend to the Portland area in 2021, we had a choice of counties. We chose Multnomah—because of Preschool for All. My youngest was one month old, my oldest was three, and we were deep in the trenches of childcare struggles. We were planning our future, and Preschool for All was part of that vision."- Laura C, Portland parent

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

Aside from the tone-deafness of these priorities, the "business taxes have increased by an astonishing 81%" is a textbook case of lying with statistics.
