America is in crisis. Real #democracy feels out of reach. #Freedom is in trouble. This July 4th weekend, while the U.S. marks #IndependenceDay, we'll gather across the country—on porches, in town squares, backyards, and streets—to stand for real freedom and build a vision of a #FreeAmerica brick by brick.

Ned McAuley-Hayes: "We are standing up for the rights of all Americans. We will not go gently into the dark night - we will rage against the dying of the American light!"
Sellwood Bridge between 5:30 - 6 p.m. every Friday evening…activities last for about an hour.
Note: Protest signs and activities must be "clean" in content and child friendly. The group supports #nonviolentresistance and is firmly against any type of violent confrontation.

#OEM Says Federal Cancellation of Grant Program Impedes #Oregon's Ability to Prepare for #Disasters
#GovKotek: “These are bipartisan or nonpartisan community projects that everybody supports. I have not heard one rationale from the Trump Administration as to why they cancelled the #BRICgrants.”
(how about if our local, city, regional and state offices now under pressure to change policies to prohibit #DEI simply do what our little KOTUS (King of the U.S.) does — just **say** you're complying, and let them litigate if they figure it out.)
