Let’s Create A People’s Budget!

  • Jobs for anyone who wants to work.
  • Food for everyone who wants to eat.
  • No cuts to vital services.
  • Affordable housing for all.
  • Robust, reliable and low-cost public transportation.
  • Affordable health care for everyone.
  • Quality education for our students.

On Saturday, May 5th, 2012 we launched a campaign and action plan to fight for city budget and spending proposals that address the primary concerns we all share.

We have joined with labor unions, community groups, Occupy, local business owners, individuals and the broader 99% to join us in a fightback against the planned city cuts to essential services, while putting forth the budget priorities demanded by the 99%.

We are building a movement. Won't you join us?

About

Community Assembly to Create a People's Budget

[improve]

Purpose

Occupy Portland’s Labor Solidarity Committee invites all people to join us in a Community Assembly to create a people’s budget that works for all of us. Our intention is to launch a campaign and action plan to achieve a city budget and spending proposal that addresses the primary concerns we all share, such as jobs, no cuts to services, housing, transportation, health care, education, etc. We plan to outreach to labor unions, community groups, Occupy, and the broader 99% to join us in a fightback against the planned city cuts to essential services, while putting forth a budget for the 99%.

Other details
Why do some observers compare the collapse of neoliberal capitalism to the collapse of the Soviet Union?

“The collapse of the Soviet system was a pretty extraordinary event, and we are currently experiencing something similar in the developed world, without fully realizing what’s happening.”[1]
