@counciloravalos

Yesterday, Council passed the Transportation Utility Fee (TUF) ordinance out of committee. I didn’t take my vote lightly - and I want you to hear why. I’ll keep pushing for more progressive revenue options that don’t put the burden on working-class Portlanders to fix a structural deficit.

Visited Kindness Farm today, an East Portland farm funded through the Portland Clean Energy Fund + Portland Children’s Levy! 🥰 Kids learning outdoors, immigrant families growing food, and community garden plots taking shape. This is exactly what public investment should do for our communities 🌱

But at the end of the day, we need to keep having a broader conversation about how we build systems that ask those who have the greatest financial flexibility to put in their fair share.

When every climate-adjacent service need becomes justification for tapping the Portland Clean Energy Fund, PCEF slowly stops functioning as the transformational climate justice tool voters approved.

I will always proudly stand in opposition to any attempt to take away funding from our police accountability system. Clark 1 failed, 6-6.

Anxiety's more than overthinking. It's a mind-body response, as racing thoughts, tension, or constant worry. You’re not alone & with tools & support, it is manageable. 💙Learn more here: www.mooddisorders.ca www.defeatdepression.ca #DefeatDepression #MoodDisordersCA #AnxietySupport #YouAreNotAlone

This may sound odd, but it’s delicious. Scoop out some quality French Vanilla ice cream, like Tillamook. Drizzle on some Graza Drizzle extra virgin olive oil. It’s a finishing oil, not cooking oil. And a few small cranks of Himalayan, pink salt. Kick it up further with a little hot honey.

The Kremlin monsters are eating each other! 🍿 Putin wants to destroy Shoigu, and Shoigu might plot back. 🤺 Ex-defense minister Shoigu’s allies are jailed, while Putin fears him as a replacement. Or maybe Putin just needs a scapegoat for the failed blitzkrieg and the war now inside Russia. 🪖

The Pentagon declared an energy emergency. Meanwhile, they're blocking 250 wind farms across 30 states — enough to power 15 million homes — from being built because of “national security.” 🙄 @hardpoints.bsky.social breaks down what’s really happening inside the crackdown. 🔗 youtu.be/agqa50JW9zE
