Purpose

Move to Amend Occupies the Courts!

Call to Action

Inspired by our friends at Occupy Wall Street, and Dr. Cornel West, Move To Amend is planning bold action to mark the second anniversary of the infamous Citizens United v. FEC decision!

Occupy the Courts will be a one day occupation of Federal courthouses across the country, including the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C., on Friday January 20, 2012.

Move to Amend volunteers across the USA will lead the charge on the judiciary which created — and continues to expand — corporate personhood rights.
Americans across the country are on the march, and they are marching OUR way.

They carry signs that say, “Corporations are NOT people! Money is NOT Speech!”

And they are chanting those truths at the top of their lungs!

The time has come to make these truths evident to the courts.

SE Occupy PDX Neighborhood Assembly 1/21/2012

[improve]

Purpose

We plan to meet twice a month until further notice, with work groups scheduled in between as needed. The time is now to get our neighborhoods and communities we live in involved as much as we can. We do NOT by any means condone violence, hate-speech, or abuse by our members, be it verbal or physical.

This is a chance to meet up with people in your area neighborhood to promote discussion and change for the greater 99%. The only requirements are
  • Live in SE Portland
  • Want to better the world through direct action in coordination with Occupy Portland and Occupy Wall Street
  • Free sense of ideas and contributions you are willing to discuss in groups
  • Desire to meet new people.


National Day of Action against Wells Fargo!

[improve]

  • Date: Tuesday, January 24, 2012
  • Time: 12:00pm until 2:00pm
  • Location: Standard Insurance Building 900 SW 5th Ave, Portland, OR
  • Jump to this event's wiki page, edit it, discuss it or return to the events page.

Purpose

On November 17th, 9 members of PCASC were arrested for standing in opposition to Wells Fargo's investment in private prisons.

Wells Fargo invests in private prison company's GEO Group and Corrections Corporation of America (CCA). These companies fund the writing & passing of racist and oppressive laws which criminalize communities of color in order to fill their prisons for maximized profit.

On January 24th we return to Wells Fargo to demand the divestment of stock in private prisons. It's a national day of action against Wells Fargo.
Join us along with other community organizations as we stand against Wells Fargo's racist investments.

We'll be meeting at the Standard Insurance Building at 900 SW 5th Ave at 12pm til 2pm.

The National Prison Industry Divestment Campaign is working to expose the profiteering of Corrections Corporation of America (CCA) and the GEO Group, the biggest private prison companies in the US, who are making millions off the separation and incarceration of immigrants and communities of color at the expense of our tax dollars.

We are calling on all prison shareholders to divest from the prison industry.

End the deportations and the raids!
Abolish All Prisons!
Legalization Now!

[improve]

  • Date: Wed Feb 29
  • Time: 11:30am until 5:30pm
  • Location: SW Naito Pkwy & SW Ankeny St, Portland, Oregon 97204
  • Jump to this event's wiki page, edit it, discuss it or return to the events page.

Purpose

Occupy Portland invites you to Shut Down the Corporations!

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.

We call on the Occupy Movement and everyone seeking freedom and justice to join us in this day of action.

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.

By shutting down the corporations for a day we begin to recreate our democracy. We begin to create a society that is organized to meet human needs and sustain life.

Leap into Action on F29!

Occupy Portland called for a national day of action on February 29th to shut down corporations associated with the anti-democratic American Legislative Exchange Council, ALEC. Over 60 cities across the country will come together on F29 to shut down ALEC's corporate members.

Join us in Portland, home to dozens of ALEC corporate members, as we shut them down!

Join us for a national occupation of Washington, DC as the occupations unite for an American Spring.

Planned Actions:

  • Direct actions will begin on Monday, April 2.

We will demonstrate the failure of the Democrats and Republicans in Congress to represent the views of the majority of people, the Supreme Court for allowing the Constitution to be perverted and for ignoring the rule of law and the Chamber of Commerce and lobbyists on K St for dominating the political process in favor of the 1% at the expense of the 99%.

We seek to end corporate rule and place human needs before corporate greed.
