Link to full OP in Bio: Rent stabilization isn’t

Link to full OP in Bio: Rent stabilization isn’t living up to its name: A 14.6% increase is hardly price control.

"Earlier this month, Oregon announced that the allowable rent price increase for 2023 will be capped at 14.6%—the largest increase since SB 608 passed in 2019 and a huge leap forward from the 9.9% increase in 2022.

Considering the rising cost of nearly everything across the board—except the cost of our labor, of course—this ridiculous rental cap can only be seen as an assault on the working class and those who are already struggling to keep their heads afloat. All of this while the wealthy are fattening their wallets at the expense of everyone else. For a city that routinely dehumanizes our houseless neighbors with depraved sweeps, a possible 14.6% increase in rent is the last thing we need when it comes to securing affordable and stable housing."

A portrayal of honest love and defeating fear: Full story in bio.
"In the 1970s and ‘80s the AIDS pandemic rocked the LGBTQ+ community, disproportionately affecting gay men. In addition, misinformation and stigma during this time caused increased homophobic discrimination and prevented many from receiving adequate or even life-saving care.

According to Portland Center Stage Literary Manager Kamilah Bush, some of the stigmatized practices from the AIDS pandemic have lasted for decades. “There were immediate bans on gay men donating blood—a restriction that still hasn’t been fully lifted and only became less rigid during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic,” Bush said. “Travel bans were put into place, which were not lifted until 2010 by President Obama.”

OP–Burnin’ down the house - New building codes are not enough. Link to full opinion in bio.

"2020 was an eventful year, with the new COVID-19 pandemic and the nationwide uprising for Black lives and police abolition after the murders of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor. In Sept. of that year, we Oregonians also faced poisoned skies choked by millions of acres of burning forest.

During this two-week period, the Portland and Salem areas had the worst air quality in the world with Air Quality Index readings literally off of the charts.

According to the Oregon Department of Emergency Management (OEM), at the end of that horrendous wildfire season over one million acres had burned, 40,000 Oregonians evacuated their homes with 500,000 more on an evacuation notice, 4,000 homes had been destroyed and their conservative estimate of the total costs for the wreckage was $380,228,948."
