POP Alerts

We received a ballot in the mail today about the effort to Repeal Oregon's Sanctuary Law. I wondered where the funding for this effort is coming from and found this information:

"The repeal group’s funding has also drawn scrutiny. According to state records, nearly all of the roughly $131,000 raised by the committee behind the initiative came from a pair of groups: Oregonians for Immigration Reform and the Federation for American Immigration Reform.

Dear friends,

As some of you may already know I am running for the Oregon Senate this year! As a democrat I appear on our May primary ballot unopposed as the sole Democratic candidate in my district. The real campaign for me will occur over the next six months, kicking off with a campaign launch on May Day, running through election day Tuesday, November 6th. I am running against Republican incumbent Cliff Bentz who was appointed in 2018 when Senator Ted Ferrioli (R) resigned to take another position.
