<div>{{Occupy Portland Event<br />
| event name = Shut Down the Corporations and Leap into Action<br />
| page = Shut Down Corporations and Leap Into Action 29 February 2012<br />
| date = Leap Day! February 29th, 2012<br />
| time = All day<br />
| location = An ALEC Corporation near you<br />
| purpose = Occupy Portland calls for a national day of non-violent direct action to reclaim our voices and challenge our society’s obsession with profit and greed by shutting down the corporations. We are rejecting a society that does not allow us control of our future. We will reclaim our ability to shape our world in a democratic, cooperative, just and sustainable direction.<br />
<br />
We call on the Occupy Movement and everyone seeking freedom and justice to join us in this day of action.<br />
<br />
There has been a theft by the 1% of our democratic ability to shape and form the society in which we live and our society is steered toward the destructive pursuit of consumption, profit and greed at the expense of all else.<br />
<br />
We call on people to target corporations that are part of the American Legislative Exchange Council which is a prime example of the way corporations buy off legislators and craft legislation that serves the interests of corporations and not people. They used it to create the anti-labor legislation in Wisconsin and the racist bill SB 1070 in Arizona among so many others. They use ALEC to spread these corporate laws around the country.<br />
<br />
In doing this we begin to recreate our democracy. In doing this we begin to create a society that is organized to meet human needs and sustain life.<br />
<br />
On February 29th, we will reclaim our future from the 1%. We will shut down the corporations and recreate our democracy.<br />
<br />
Leap into action! Reclaim our future! Shut down the corporations!<br />
