Summary of our last meeting

  1.     Introductions – We made our introductions and welcomed two new Savers to our group.   2.     ROC (Residents Organizing for Change) talked about what they do and how folks can get involved. They are working on their own Bill, and it should be introduced next session. Universal Basic Income (UBI) is what it’s about and came from their conference last year. First time this is being proposed in Oregon. Ballot Party on October 11 th from 1:30p – 3:30p. Very important measures coming up. NW Pilot Project has been trying to do a UBI but haven’t been able to yet. We encouraged all who attended to think about getting involved with ROC. Please reach out if you have any questions about this. They have a standing meeting called RUCKUS every other Tuesday. It’s a Zoom meeting and the next one is Tuesday the 27 th   at 1:30pm.   Please contact Reyna at rgillet@neighborhoodpartnerships.org or Rebekah at rmarkillie@neighborhoodpartnerships...
