Protests at the Oregon State Capitol...
The grassroots are growing... Every morning at 7:15am people are gathering at the entrance to the parking garage where our elected officials drive into. The group is demanding that SB1000 is passed. More legislators were seen today - maybe 35-40. The response from the Senators and Representatives has overall been fantastic. There are of course some (ech hem Karen Minnis) who for example smiled and waved from their vehicles when in public she has vowed to do whatever she can to stop this bill from passing the House. Oh Karen - if the public knew your dirty little secrets.
Other responses have been as follows:
- String of Minnis, Krupf, Richardson waving energetically.
- Charles Starr, who has called gays terrorists was giving thumbs down; What a surprise!
- Sen. Maj Leader Kate Brown yelling bill status out of her window
- Shields coming by to thank us; string of legislators throughout the day thanking us for being out there.
- Betsy Johnson waving quite a lot - she's not been too energetic the other mornings
- A number of legislators have taken to yelling bill status from their vehicles
- Sen. Westlund stopped, opened the window, got off the phone and yelled "I love you guys!" and then blew us a big kiss.
JOIN THEM! Every morning at 7:15am at the entrance to the parking garage. Each day more and more people are showing up to support SB1000.
